Secondary fermentation

[loz114]

I have just moved a stout to my secondary fermenter. Does the secondary fermenting phase need to have an air locked on it, air tight or can it just be wrapped with foil? I'm storing my secondary in a pressure barrel. Been reading different comments about what to use but just wanted some facts to read on what's best.

Ha, it's no test. I've just heard that some people just cover the top with foil or muslin because the CO2 is always at the base of the beer. At the moment I only have one air lock so I've placed my pressure barrel lid on my secondary. Was just wondering what other people use
