I'm just getting into making wild brews and wanted to know how much headspace is too much? I have 4 gals of a braggot of sorts in a 6 gal carboy that I added brett C to about a week ago. My plan was to add 1 gal cherry juice to it at some point down the line, so I'd have 5 gals and still have some room for new fermentation activity. If I don't open it at all, will it be a problem? Maybe I should just fill it up with water and honey to just below the top to be safe?
Any input is appreciated.
Thanks,
wickerman
