Hello,
At the 7th day of my primary fermentation, I moved my porter beer to secondary. The SG was 1.014 and the taste was good.
Than I realized that I did sth wrong after doing some reading about the effect of oxygen for secondary. During transfer I was carefull not to aerate the beer much. But the beer I transferred to carboy only filled the half of 15 liter carboy which means there is 50% beer and 50% air in the carboy.
Now I am worried about oxidation. Should I be worried head space which is 50% air?
Is there anything I can do like bottling earlier in order to keep less contact with air?
Thanks
