What are the potential issues with having to much head space (empty space) in the fermenter?
lets say I am fermenting 2.5 gallons in a 5 gal bucket or 5 gallons in a 20 gal bucket.
In addition to the potential issues what is the likelihood of them arising and can I get away with it from time to time.
I am in a very remote part of the Aleutians. I have to make due with supplies on hand. I have been brewing in 4 mil clear garbage bags for now. should be getting/making more supplies soon.
