Hey everyone, I just started a gallon and a half of cider but I only had a 5 gallon bucket to use. Will that cause a problem? Thanks for the help and sorry for the dumb question lol
I'd say just leave it there until you're ready to bottle it, maybe after 4 or so weeks after you pitched the yeast.bucket sealed with an airlock
A bucket sealed with an airlock will be fine. It will keep any nasties out. As you seem to have a lot of airspace in the bucket, I would rack to a smaller container to limit exposure to O2 once the foam settles. It sort of depends on how long before you plan to bottle or keg. Have you pressed your own juice or using "store bought". If the latter, you can use the original containers with an airlock.I have the bucket sealed with an airlock already, should I still plan on racking it into a smaller container? If so how long roughly should i wait till I do so? I don't know what SG1.020 stands for.
