I brew the odd Festabrew kit, and they clock in at 6.3 gallons. Been using a 7.9 gallon bucket so far, and that seems like enough volume to avoid blow off, but would really like a carboy, to be able to see the fermentation, and possibly keg under pressure to avoid O2 contact.
Does any one make a Better bottle substitute that is larger than 6.5 gallons? If not, can I use the 6.5 with a blow off tube? Would really hate to have to separate the batch in 2...
