Ok thanks! So many people say to do 2ndary, good to know I shouldn’t. so what about when transferring to bottles? I want to add sugar, and so I need to do that outside of the main vessel because I’ve got to stir it in, and I don’t want to get the gunk in the bottom to stir up into my bottles. But I do want it somewhat carbonated. I just bought some dextrose, and was told to make a sugar syrup and add to the bottling vessel. So basically just be super careful in transferring it to the vessel? I’ve got a bottling wand, should I use that to transfer to the bottling container?Common wisdom at this point is to allow the yeast to finish in the same vessel. Very few people are transferring for secondary fermentation because of the added risk of infection and oxygen exposure. When I started almost everyone transferred to a secondary (I did for years), but the benefits don't outweigh the risks and effort it requires to move the beer.
It would work, and you'd make good beer. None of this stuff makes or breaks anything, but when you're getting started it makes sense to aim for best practices.
Cheers!
