I made a 10 gallon batch of an all grain IPA. The total into the secondarys (two carboys) is a less than 10 gallons. I want to keg the beer not bottle. Both are dry hopped at this time. One carboy has less volume than the other.
Is it possible to equalize the dry hop by putting the two...

I was looking at the following schedule...Please critique and help a...
I made Ed Worts recipe Bavarian Hefeweizen yesterday. The brew went great and I transferred into a 5 gallon fermenter bucket. Tonight I noticed my placed smelled a little to much like fermentation. At high krausen it blew through the airlock.
My question is do I need to replace the airlock...
