Have a 35 gallon wine barrel and all the bugs/ingredients to brew and fill it with a pLambic.
My question is, should I fill it up leaving just enough room for pitching for primary? Or should I fill it to 2/3 or some lesser volume to leave room for Krausen and then top off with Fermented? Or fresh wort? After it dies down?
Thanks for the input an any other barrel/pLambic tips welcome.
