I have the Amirillo Ale sitting in primary at about 22 degrees now and when fermentation has finished, want to rack it to secondary and stick it in the fridge for cold conditioning.
Problem is i only have a bar fridge to condition in (i havnt got room in my keg fridge) and the fermenter will just fit but not with airlock.
Instead of using the lid for my secondary should i just cover with glad wrap to seal ( with a pin hole for gas release) wich i do sometimes for my primary.
Or is there any other suggestions out there?
Cheers

I've heard that works.

Also, if you're CC'ing the fermentation should be finished anyway. I try to CC for 2 weeks and I normally use a sealed fermenter. Have had no problems yet.

Dont worry about the pin holes. You dont need them.

Yeah, gladwrap works nicely, and the pin holes are unneccessary. You might want to put a squirt of CO2 from your keg set-up into your 2ndary. Seeing you have it sitting right there.

As I mentioned in another post, I use a 6mm hose in the top hole then into an airlock which I affixe to the inside of the fridge. Works a treat. I like to hear the bubbles, otherwise glad wrap is fine...
