Well, I have a dilemma.
I am moving. Not far, about 5 miles. Short but bumpy ride from old house to
new house.
The dilemma is: How do I move my four fermenters of pLambic?
I have two plastic 6.5 gallon fermenters with air locks and two 5 gallon
carboys.
The carboys are the least of a worry as I have plastic milk crates to set
them in, and they contain one year old beer which probably won't be damaged
much by shaking a little.
The plastic fermenters are my big concern since they contain beer in its
secondary fermentation phase at about 5 months.
When I racked my first batch of beer to the carboys (from the plastic
fermenters) late last January, I started a second batch which I racked into
the plastic fermenters. The plastic fermenters contain about 4oz of oak
chips each to help hoast the beasties.
Should I get two more carboys and rack the beer in the plastic to the
carboys?
If so, How do I keep the oak chips with (hopefully) my beastie culture?
