Hi all, so far I've been doing my fermentation in 1 gallon glass demijohns. I'm a little tired of cleaning the things out and the floorspace that loads of demijohns take up so I bought a Wilko's 25L FV. For my next brew I'm hoping to do a half batch (11-12 litres) of porter circa 6-7% ABV. Can anyone tell me whether I can use the large FV for this? Will having too much headspace negatively impact my brew? I'm thinking the high OG needed to get to that alcohol percentage should encourage the yeast to fill the dead space with CO2 pretty quickly. I'm going to be making a yeast starter 12-24 hours before I need it to encourage fast uptake. Is this enough?
