Fermenting 10lt In A 20lt Cube

[Smokomark]

I'm interested in fermenting some of my cubes with different yeasts.
Are there any problems involved with splitting my no chill cubes into 2 x 20 litre cubes are fermenting with 2 different yeasts?

Is 10 litres of wort and 10 litres headspace ok?
Should i purge headspace with co2 after oxygenating the wort?

I have plenty of 20lt cubes on hand and don't want to have to buy 10 litre ones as well.

Any thoughts or comments apprieciated.

Cheers, Mark

Gday mark. Go ahead and ferment!
The 10L head space should do much. As the beer begins to ferment the co2 produced in the beer will create a blanket layer on the surface of the beer.

Good luck!
