fermentation thru glass..

[1ratdog]

(because the weather was perfect outside and i was on vacation from work) i had to brew even tho all my buckets are full. i fermented in 1 of my 5 gallon carboys, which are usually my secondaries.((If needed)) (with a blow off tube, and a small beer 1.040)

i always used bucket as a primary before.

OMG

what a pleasure to watch fermentation in progress.

going to buy a 6 gallon carboy for primary next trip to LHBS.

Sounds like you'll need to do a blend of the two later (two bottles mixed in the glass all the blonde, slowly add the porter to get to the right level) for a Smokin' Blonde. I did that with my Alderwood Smoked Porter and a buddy's Irish Red for a Smokin' Redhead...mmmm.
