So I'm preparing to brew my first lager. I want to go from the kettle into a better bottle that I will use as settling tank to chill the work don't from 70 to 45 where I will rack into my speidel tank fermenter. I know this will put pressure on the better bottle as the temp changes so I was thinking of putting a carbon cap on the top with a inline sanitary air filter in the racking outlet. This should protect from any bugs getting in as air is drawn into the better bottle.
Does this seem like it would work? Am I missing something potentially dangerous here?
