Default Fermenter

Saw this on Craigslist today. Any thoughts? Looks like a great fermenter to me.

10 gallon stainless steel tank

He's actually got another one for larger capacities. It's a little extreme.

250 gallon stainless steel tank

The description for the 10G one says "It has chrome or nickel plating inside and out." I think if that is the case I'd pass, especially if it is nickle. If it is really just polished stainless steel then sure.

Agree - can't be plated.

Ah, okay, hadn't thought about it. Saw stainless and rushed ahead.
