This topic has probably been done somewhere here before. So apologies for broaching it again, but I couldn't find it with "search"
I notice quite a few experienced brewers here don't secondary, but bottle directly from the primary. This is appealing on a number of levels.
But I'm wondering about making 'big' beers this way, such as barleywines or even IPAs with OGs of 1.08. Are secondaries necessary for higher gravity beers?
