Hi
I'm fairly new to this so a little advice would be very much appreciated.
I've got a 30 bottle Beaverdale Barolo on the go. The instructions state that I should rack it at Sg 1010, which it should be by tomorrow.
Question is this. My fermenting vessel is a Youngs fermenting barrel with the 4" screw top. I also have a Youngs bucket. Can I rack in to the bucket then wash and sanitize the barrel before transferring back?
I also have a better bottle type carboy, should I rack in to this? My only concern would be that it wouldn't leave any head space for degassing.
Thanks in advance.
