a few questions on going Small Batch route.
1. If I use and extract recipe that calls for say 5lbs of liquid extract for 5 gallon, and convert recipe to 1 gallon, can I freeze the other 4 gallons for use later? I havent seen any of the liquids at my LHBS that have 1lb cans.
2. Do I need to use a 1 or 2 gallon fermenter or can I use one of my 5 gallons? too much headspace?
Any other tips? Ill be going to partial and full grain mostly for 1 gallon so I many need more equipment since my 5gallon set up is extract and mead right now.
as always thanks for your patience with the n00b!
