Hello everyone,
I want to start doing some 2.5 gallon batches. I understand that a 5 or 6 gallon carboy will have too much headspace for secondary conditioning, but what about for primary fermentation? Is a 6.5 gallon Ale Pail ok for this because of the fermentation activity? Will all of the oxygen be displaced or is that too large for a primary?
