Okay, so if any of your have responded to my questions about equipment, I thank you. I will also have you know that I did go in and purchase that kit. I have already brewed my first batch and it is now in the primary fermenter (6 gal. glass carboy). Once fermentation was complete, I was going to transfer to my secondary (5 gal. glass carboy). Here's my questions, since I am lacking a bottling bucket, should I transfer back into the clean primary, or mix the sugar into the secondary and bottle from there. The reason I ask is because from what I've read and seen on videos, people will boil their sugar in water, put in it in the bottling bucket THEN siphon into the bottling bucket. This is to avoid unnecessary oxygenation of the fermented beer. My only option is to stir the sugar directly in which might oxygenate my beer more. Is this too confusing or does this make sense? Let me know. Obviously, since I just brewed, I don't need answers ASAP.
Thanks in advance,
Ryan
