I have heard that some people ferment with no air-lock. DIY Kits like Mr. Beer and Cooper's don't have air-locks and they obviously don't feel like it presents a problem. It seems to me that if you go to all the trouble of making sanitation a priority and don't want things like wild yeast...
I want to get some home brew equipment and I keep running across all these kits with a secondary fermenter.. I am wondering if they are necessary and/or useful?
It seems that storing in bottles or kegs serves the same purpose?
Also, is it better to ferment in the plastic bucket or a glass...
Hello everyone,

Richmond has really been taking off as a beer town and I want to get in on the act! :mug:
