    Its in the secondary

    I'm nervous about this one. My brew stopped bubbling about two says so I put it in the secondary (bucket). Everything's sanitized. Minimal oxidation. But I've read people's posts talking about the air laying on top of the beer in the secondary ruining it. Should I worry?

    In the secondary

    I just siphoned my winter ale into a secondary. I'm really excited for this one. I have it a taste and its exceptional already.

    Otters my porter about two days ago and it's been sitting in my closet for two days now. Should I leave it there or move it to the fridge. And if I move it to the fridge will it stop carbonating?

    Here this out

    Alright I have a porter sitting in a Tupperware container full of water. I frequently change out frozen water bottles to manage the temperature. If the water is 60 to 65 degrees does that mean inside my fermenter it's the same? I'm hoping that even if the temp is cooler on the outside the inside...
