2nd Fermentation in bulk

[Nick M]

Hello all,

I have just started my first ever brew, and i have a question. My question is, is it possible to do the 2nd fermentation in a large 1 gallon glass far with a lid that seals?

I was hoping i would be able to do the 2nd fermentation in bulk and then decant into another 1 gallon glass jar with a spout, and keep it in the refrigerator to be poured when ever desired... Is this possible??

Yes you can 2nd ferment in bulk... I have 5 gallons sitting on mango right now. Just don't seal the container as it is likely not pressure rated and will potentially shatter on you from said pressure... unless you have something that can hold pressure, like empty 2 liter soda bottles.
