I'm considering fermenting in corny kegs. I don't really mind not having a full five gallons on draft and I would rather brew more often. I've ordered two modified keg lids from Adventures in Homebrewing (they are set up to use an airlock). I plan on fermenting just enough to avoid blowoff; anyone have an idea of what that ideal batch size would be? I understand that there are a lot of variable here but I'm looking for a ballpark batch size.
By the way, reasons for switching are as follows: easy transfer to secondary with minimal O2 exposure, safer than the glass carboys that I use for most batches, no light exposure, and harder to take samples (a bad habit of mine that my wife mocks me for).
Thanks,
Dean
