I have a 5 gallon saison (with harvested Saison DuPont yeast, which is beastly!) currently fermenting in a bucket. When it finishes, I'm planning on borrowing a 6.5 gallon glass carboy from a friend, and racking the saison into the carboy on some stepped-up Crooked Stave brett/bacteria dregs.

Will this work okay? I know you can get oxygen by not completely filling a secondary vessel, but my thought was that the Brett would generate some CO2, and consume oxygen.
