I brewed my first Flanders Red last July. Per JZ's recommendations, I fermented it down to 1.022 with US05 first (which was not the best idea, because it hasn't produced the level of sourness that I want, but that can be fixed with lactic acid...but I digress). I racked off the US05 cake, and it's been in this fermenter with the Roeselare blend since around the end of last July, with a layer of oak cubes floating in there and an oak dowel shoved through the bung. It's still got a bit of a pellicle, but I'm racking to keg soon and was wondering...after this long, could I just brew another Flanders Red and dump the wort right into that carboy? Any downsides?
