Hi, Brewing some St Peters IPA at the min (first brew) and I just have a question about conditioning the beer. The packet says bottle/barrel the beer, keep in a cool place for 2 days then store somewhere cool for 14. Does all the secondary fermentation take place in the 1st two days? The beer...

This looks like the cap I have http://www.the-online-homebrew-company. ... cts_id=202 Can't see any obvious vent though. Does anyone else here use this?

Any ideas? Thanks!

Hey, Thanks for the quick reply and welcome. I had thought that given the small capacity of the barrel the extra CO2 might not be needed. Seems it is. Cheers. That's another £15 to add to my shopping list lol! P.S Sorry of the lack of introduction :)

Hello, First post here for a quick question... If you use a 2 gallon pressure barrel (e.g http://home-brew-online.myshopify.com/p ... on-16-pint), are you still likely to need a CO2 Injector system? Thanks!
