First post, and I'd first like to say thanks to all the guys who help out here and have the patience to answer redundant questions.
I have a couple.Totally unrelated.
1. Fermenting 3 gallons in a 6 gallon carboy? No harm? or not recommended?
2. I have a 5 gallon bucket that held pickles ( got in from a sub shop). Whats the best way to remove the pickle oder. Vlasic Beer? Not good.
3. Does beer get its character from a longer ferment or bottle conditioning?
I just bottled a Grand Cru belgian (big beer) after 16 days in the fermenter (3 gallons in a 6 gallon ) then bottled. I was wondering if I should have left it in the primary longer before bottling.
Thanks for your help/suggestions
