Hi everyone, I retired one year ago and now I realized that I am getting a bit bored... I was hoping that smoking and sausage making will make my busy but... not really - there is only that much of meat and sausages we can eat... Recently my mother-in-low gave me about 30 pounds of honey (she stopped using it) so I decided why not to try to make some mead and make it my another hobby. So... I went to my local MoreBeer store and got all I need for this. On one thing I bought (and pretty important thing) I made wrong decision ( I guess)... I bought 7 gallons plastic carboy while my plan is to make 4 gallons of mead. Now I have a question for you: can I use 7 gallon carboy to make 4 gallons of mead? Is it to big or I shouldn't be worry of that? Thank you!
