I'm doing a toucan Coopers Stout & Dark Ale and I know this will blow over big time because I've done the stout on it's own and had it blow out through the airlock resulting in a bit of a mess (and some lost beer). I read a tip on the Coopers website forum - make it up to 15L instead of the usual 23L and then top it up with water after the active fermentation is over. Just wondering if anyone here has any opinion on this approach? Any downsides to this? Was wondering if the higher SG would stress the yeast?
