Is it okay to ferment 2 gallons of homemade beer in a 5 gallon fermenter?
Never made beer at home before. I ordered 5 different types of beer but they only make 2 gallons each. I’m asking because someone told me the less air in the fermenter the better.
Less air is better, you could find some 1 gallon jugs and ferment it in two separate batches, but of course you’d need a rubber cork w/ airlock for each.
