Fermenter head space
« on: September 14, 2015, 09:38:58 AM »
Brewed this recipe this weekend - http://www.homebrewtalk.com/showthread.php?t=52776
2.5 gallon batch, hit my mark on the OG - 1037
I do have one question.
I'm using a 6.5 gal plastic fermenter with about 3 gallons of beer fermenting.
Does the head space make a difference? because I started it on Saturday with hopes of seeing the airlock start bubbling but nothing yet.

A good plan violently executed today is better than a perfect plan next week.

Strong like bull, smart like tractor.

You could ferment that yeast in an open shoebox and you'd be fine ;)
