First time brewing. I transfered the beer to the carboy a couple of days ago. I showed the pic that you see here to a coworker and he told me that there should be very litter air in the carboy and that I should boil some water and fill it up the rest of the way. I did that and now I wonder if I should have. I see pics of carboys on here and none of them are as full as I made mine. I'm not worried that it will hurt anything, just wondering if it was necessary. BTW, he told me that the reason is all that air contains oxygen which is bad.
Thanks in advance.
I guess I'm not allowed to post a pic.??? Anyhow, there was about a gallon or more of air in carboy. Now there is about 2 oz.
