So after my last escapade with not leaving enough head space (see: Blowoff Tubes: a Haiku ) I realized I need a new 6.5gal carboy.
Then I realized, I gotta start a batch this weekend (working in the pit band for a musical, going to brew a batch for the closing week/cast party) if I'm going to hit my deadline. So I have ingredients, but no carboy.
Would a 4 gal batch leave enough room in a 5 gal carboy? Could I go higher with a blowoff tube with little to no repercussions?
I'm probably going to do it anyways, just want to know what im getting into
