1. I crushed/destemmed directly into my large 28 liter can. Seemed to work out ok but a little messy. Do you guys crush/destem directly into your fermentation vessel or do you go into another container and transfer?
2. Do you use that special stand that goes w the c/d to direct the grapes, and if so, what do you crush into?
3. I filled my 28 Gallon bucket with about 6 inches left at the top. Is that enough room for the cap? When I did this before I used 8 gallons buckets and it always seemed to bubble to the top. Will having a huge
Bucket this time mean I need a ton more head space?
4. It was a pain cleaning the c/d, very hard to pick out all the stems. Any tips ?
