Hey beer drinkers!

i'll get there eventually - or maybe just 2 or 3 more "mr. beer' 2-gallon fermenters.

is there an advantage to fermenting in larger quantities? I'm sure consistency between multiple fermenters isn't easy to obtain, and more beer is always better, but are there less-obvious advantages? does more wort take longer to ferment?

"Real" Equipment makes it easier to achieve good results on a consistent basis. As far as I can tell, a larger quantity doesn't take any more time than your 2 gal. setup.

Most home brewers do a 5 gallon batch. That's not a significant increase over what you're already doing. Besides, 2 gallons is less than 24 beers isn't it? That's hardly enough to share! :D
