I'm waiting for my equipment to come and was wondering afew things. I notice alot of people use only blow off tubes, so is this the best or will I be fine with my airlock. I ordered a starter kit that includes a 6.5gal fermenter(plastic bucket) and will be brewing 5gal batches. My first beer will be a cherry wheat and the second an Irish red ale. I don't want to make a big mess unless I have to. Will I have enough head space in the fermenter and be alright with the airlock?
I can't wait to get this rolling! I've wanted to do this for along time and when I found out my buddy was brewing I just had to start! He will be helping me through my first boil.
Thanks,
