Hey all, first time using a barrel and when filling it we came up a bit short. In the 15 gallon barrel I think we got to 13 or so gallons. Lot of trub in the fermenter. We racked pretty well with little aeration.
How much will the head space hurt? The barrel is mostly waxed. Just the front face is unwaxed.
Would it be silly to brew 5 gallons more now and top it off?
