I'm in the process of brewing my first beer. I'm about 3 1/2 days into fermentation and fermentation is beginning to slow - it was really crazy for the first 12-48 hours. I'm using a blow-off on a 5 gallon better bottle and plenty of krausen was expelled. I plan on bottling once fg is reached 7-10 days. The blow-off isn't in my way, so is there any reason to replace it with an air lock?
I know to watch out for air suck if moving the bottle, but when I need to move I plan to replace it with a stopper.
Thanks.
Patrick
