Hey guys,
Picked up a bargain today at kmart, the coopers diy beer kit for $44 on clearance. (kmart eastland Ringwood vic for those playing at home. Only had 3 left so maybe sold out by now).
Anyway, I was wondering if its possible to use the FV as a secondary? I've heard you have to keep headspace to a minimum so maybe not? Add some sugar to allow CO2 to form in the headspace? My bar fridge will only fit 1 FV so have 2 brews going probably isn't going to work.
Still a bargain, Obviously comes with a lot of gear besides just the FV and wouldn't hurt to have a back up? ;-)
Oh, heres a pic of my first brew that I was...hah...testing, another coopers diy beer kit with 1kg malt and CC'ed, strained the hops out for the photo, which I will obviously do when I bottle as well. I think its going to be a good one when its carbed! Hell, its not bad uncarbed lol
