Have a feeling I've read a thread on this here somewhere but I can't find it now..
I've brewed a 10L batch (extract APA recipe), happily fermented over a couple of weeks.
Will transfer to my 5 gallon pressure barrel tomorrow eve. As the barrel will be just under a half full, any extra steps should be taken due to the large headspace?
I'll prime with a sugar solution (60g or so?). Thinking it may be worth purging the head space with a bulb or two of CO2?
