Hi all,
I recently purchase "The Brew House - American Premium Lager". This kit comes with Coopers yeast. I have a 'Nottingham' yeast as well. I was planning on splitting the batch into 2 primaries and using both yeasts, just to see if there is much difference as I don't have local access to any other kinds.
My question is: When (if) i rack to a carboy, does it matter if its only 1/2 full for the 2 weeks the instructions say? Or will that be too much air space? Or should I just skip secondary and leave it in the bucket for 3-4 weeks then bottle?
Thanks for any future answers
Brad
