Hello,
Im new to this, and I have a few questions. I just bought a beer kit, it came with a large plastic tub, and a carboy among other things. My main question is the primary fermentation supposed to occur in the carboy or the plastic tub. The plastic tub has no air lock ( i'd have to make to hole in the lid to do so). So I mixed it in the plastic tub, and then transferred to the carboy and added the yeast, put the air lock on it and let bubble away. After 6 days (today) it stopped bubbling in the air lock. Now for the secondary, do I need another carboy or let it occur in the bottles (I still need to add dextrose) My final questions is plastic or glass bottles?
Appreciate any help or suggestions
