So I was gifted this 5.4 gal cask. I hear it's used for making real ale! But I'm not really interested in making that. This weekend I'm going to be brewing ten gallons of stout at 7% abv.
My question is can I split it and add honey to half to boost the alcohol content allow it to ferment dry then add it to the cask with some oak chips? Then I open it up in six months or so when it's cold and force carb in a keg? Has anyone done this using a cask? How do it do it
Thanks for any advice given!
