Hey guys, just curious. I made some apfelwein that some of my bosses really want to try.
I use the method on here, of turning the pressure down, using a modified bottling wand and stopper to fill growlers/bottles. However, without the head that you get from beer filling all the headspace, thus reducing the amount of oxygen to skunk the beer, how long do they last.
I ask because I can usually get a beer to last about a week with my method. Does apple juice oxidize more readily, or having that little bit of headspace cause it to skunk faster? I want to give them a 6-pack each, but they probably would need 3 days to drink this batch. :cross::cross:
