Squishy Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 Bit of a querie...... I have a 50Ltr keg and a 25Ltr Fermenter.... what would happen if i put 25Ltr in a 50Ltr keg and natuarally conditioned???? would i need to purge with CO2 to get rid of the oxegen??? The minister for finances is reining in on the beer funds so 20 ltr kegs or a new/bigger fermenter in out of the question at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PB2 Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 Not sure about that much headspace with only secondary fermentation, it may not mop up all the oxygen [unsure] Might pay to play it safe and purge the keg with CO2 prior to half filling with beer. Another option might be to make a high gravity brew, such as the vintage ale recipe then dilute it with water in the keg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frothmonster Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 Just do 2 brews at the same time . Doesnt have to be a brand name fermenter, you can make your own for a few bucks. Im just getting into kegging myself, with the 19 litre kegs and have just bought 4 more! Soooooooooooo much easier than bottling , more fun, less waste . Im still very much a begginner at kegging but has got me back into brewing again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
