Another question I have....and remember i'm a noobie....what advantages do you get with secondary fermentation?
I have a glass carboy and a bucket, and have done only 1 fermentation on my beers so far. Do you start in the carboy and go to the bucket for the second fermentation? vice versa? does it matter? After the second fermentation, do you typically bottle it from that container? Or is there more floaties to get out by transferring it again before bottling?
I just want to make the best beer I can!
