It appears that many folks rack from the main fermenter into a 6 gal
carbouy, then later into a 5 gal carbouy. Most equipment kits come
with a large fermenting bucket and then a 6 gal carbouy, but no 5 gal
carbouy. I realize that you can buy separately.

I am about to make my first batch of wine, the Brew King Selection
cab. I know I probably want to age at least a month longer than what
the instructions state, but should I also transfer into a second
carbouy? I guess if I go this route, I could bottle some and still
have enough to fill the 5 gal carbouy.

I'm obviously not going to hit a homerun on my fist at bat, but I
would like to make something that I will enjoy. Some people say
"comparable to a $15 bottle of wine," while others say, "comparable to
a $20 bottle of wine." I'm hoping for something comparable to an $8
bottle of wine.
