What some might not know is CO2 will blanket the wine in the primary and secondary from air very well, when I'm not sweeping the floor at work, I also run a GE 60 megawhatt turbine generator, the generating section is run in a pure hydrogen atmosphere (very slippery) when we take it down for maintenence we have to degass it. When we refill it we push the air out by putting CO2 in from the bottom, it does not mix much with the air but statifies and pushes the air out the top, then when we have pure CO2 coming out the top we inject hydrogen in the top till it pushes all the CO2 out the bottom. Thats why I feel using a primary bucket for my secondary is OK bcause the must is still fermenting, I accept the fact that if I want top quality glass would be the way to go, but right now I am just thirsty!!
(remember interesting posts get extra points) what contest.
