Be the ball!
Finally brewed! A weird belgian recipe, but have discovered i love blending wine and beer.
Thinking of picking up the cereal killer. Anyone use it or anything else?
I'd only think the airlock would suck-in if the temps dropped, But it gets confusing with barrels, as the barrel warms up the wood expands absorbing more beer, and as the barrel cools it tightens back up. so slight temp variation can help to get the flavors out of the wood.
You could raise the basement temp I don't think that would hurt.
If you are concerned you could also try to purge the head space with C02 and put the airlock back.
I've only barrel aged twice and they were both Stouts.
The only downside is my wife got a new job and we move to The Philly area by Sept 1....so looks like I will come back to grab my share when it's ready.
How did the move go?
Hey Keno,
Glad to hear from you. I hear ya about living with the in-laws. Been there, done that. Not a fan, but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do.
Fingers crossed for your job and house search! It took us a while too.
