I just racked to my 5 gal carboy as a secondary, something I don't normally do (I usually only use primary). Anyway, I was somewhat surprised at how much room there was at the top of the carboy after filling it. I know I lose some to trub in the primary, and that since the top of the carboy narrows it might be an illusion as to how much space is left, but it got me wondering...
when a carboy is "5 gal", does that mean to the very tip of the carboy? Or does that mean something else?
Thanks.
