Hi everyone,
I want to condition a brew (OTR cider) in a secondary fv for a couple weeks, only problem is I have run out of buckets and don't want to buy another just yet.
I have a plastic pressure barrell (useless thing I got with a starter kit) I am wondering if I can use it as a secondary fv?
Should I prime it with a little sugar to create a co2 layer? And if so should I leave the cap on top loose?
Or I think I have a co2 cartridge should I fit the cap and pressurise it with the co2?
I've done a full 23L batch.
Any advice most welcome
Jake
