So as some have suggested on this forum, I do my entire fermentation in one carboy. No secondary. My question is, for this style brewing, what is the ideal size carboy?
Just a thought..peak at our site if you will...we have 7 gallon stainless steel carboys we call Cavern's. Thanks
So it sounds like 6-6.5 gallons is ideal. My question is, would that volume be too much head space to keep the beer in for the entire process? (Keep in mind I'm using no secondary. I leave in primary for 4 weeks then bottle.)
Just to clarify, I understand the c02 pushes out the oxygen during fermentation. But once fermentation is complete, and you start to open the vessel to take samples, replace blowoff, ect., isn't oxygen let into the vessel?
