Has anyone ever tried using a counter pressure bottle filler to purge the 02 from a carboy? The idea would be to do this when you're going to be left with a sizable head space during bulk storage of a cider that is no longer fermenting and thus will not produce CO2 on its own. I'm thinking of something like 4 gallons in a 5-gallon carboy.
Any other ways to purge the O2 out of a carboy when aging a cider that is done fermenting? Of course, I could keg it, but I don't want to tie up my kegs for 6 months plus.
