i just put a rubber stopper on the top of the carboy and shake the crap out of it. never had a problem with fermentation. dose using the O2 really make a big difference or is that only in bigger batches that you cant pick up and shake?
holy crap 18 lbs of grain is allot. I normally don't go any higher than 12 due to my mash tun only being 5 gallons but that sounds great. I think my next brew will be a maibock
was going to go with
8lbs Org. pilsner
2lbs Org. Munich
0.5lbs Org. honey malt
0.5lbs Org. vienna
0.13lbs Org...
