i asked the same thing and it turns out tha when you rack you beer over it kinda wakes some of the yeast up and makes a blanket of c02 wich will protect your beer,wont hurt anything as long as its not in there over a month or so

My first batch (midwest supplies autamn amber ale) and its been in the primary for 9 days,took the lid off to tranfer to carboy and theres lots of stuff floating on top that looks like yeast?..good beer smell...also my carboy is 6 gallon,5 gallon batch of beer with lots of head room left will it...

Ive read that a 5 gallon carboy is perfect for 5 gallon secondary...Least amount of headroom the better

no i dont use my bottling bucket for a primary but i think you could as long as rubber seal would hold up to a little pressure
