Looking to get a 8 gallon speidel. Mostly because I brew a lot of big beers and Belgian beers and need the extra head space. Three questions:
Can the spiedel be used in a water bath/swamp cooler without worrying about water leaking in?
Can I do CO2 transfers like I currently do? Now I hook my CO2 up to one hole of a carboy cap and the racking cane goes in the other hole (using better bottles). I read people are using carboy caps on the tops of these things for thermowells so it seems like CO2 transfers are possible.
What is the total height (with airlock)? I see morebeer gives the height without an airlock, but that's not really very helpful.
