Hey all,
I plan to brew a few 2.5 gallon or 3 gallon batches in the near future. Do you think I could ferment these in a 5 gallon bucket?
Money is pretty tight and I already have the 5 gallon buckets so it'd be perfect to just ferment in those if it doesn't create too much head space.
I did purchase a 3 gallon plastic carboy from my LHBS in case I need to use a secondary but this cost me about $25. They do not sell 3 gallon buckets unfortunately.
Thanks a lot everyone!
