I'm in the process of opening a nano-brewery, and I have the opportunity to obtain a 7BBL system (brew house / fermentors / brites) at a pretty good price.
I think I really only need about a 3BBL system for my smallish town, and I'm curious if I do 1/2 batches on that (which it can do) can I also just fill a 7BBL FV 1/2 way?
I realize I probably want a smaller BT so I'm not wasting C02, but will loading 1/2 a FV work? I keep hearing people say they wish they went bigger in the beginning, so I'm struggling with whether or not to go essentially 2x what I was initially thinking.
Thoughts?
