That or add options of having the fermenter fully Tri-Clamped with fittings then any pressures within reason of brewing without any worries.
The size is just right for 18G batches, which is about what I need to do to get 15G in the kegs. My boiler is a 25G pot. My fementation box is styrofoam, that I can heat and cool, and could be able to mod to fit this thing, especially with the shorter legs.
Anything out there that I'm overlooking? Thick steel, all TC, cheap, able to take some pressure... sounds right to me.
It's not the light bluing I'm worried about. Are the welds at least ground smooth or can you see the bead?
I am contemplating the purchase of two of the triclamp models. I am totally fine with all the welds except the weld between the top dome and the body of the fermenter. That weld looks suspect for a fermenter.
how is everyone cleaning their fermenters now?
Hey Josh, how is the temp control coming?????

I fill it up with water, dump in Oxyclean let it sit overnight and hose it out the next day. I then fill it up and add Star San and poof....done.... very easy!

Is no one asking them to put corny posts on the 4" tri-clamp? Thermowell? Pressure relief valve (or just a port for it)? Would be sweet. Just sayin.
Great to have a blow-off port AND a gas out post. Mine just has a gas out post that I also use as a blow-off port by fiddling with post adapters and such (basically to give me better ID and eliminate the poppit valve).
I'm getting different length dip tubes for the gas out so I can experiment with top cropping more effectively (i.e. just put a gas out dip tube in that's, say, 3" from the final volume level.... etc.)
I'm not in the holding pattern waiting for my Brewhemoth to be built/shipped. Dale and Josh have been amazing with the pre-sale support.
Here is a bit of the info I received that might be helpful to someone else.
Inside bottom (at dump valve) to weld (where cone meets the side
cylinder) - 16" dia X 7.5" tall (about 2.5" dia at bottom)
Cylinder from weld to weld - 16" dia X 17.5" tall
Overall height from bottom to top WELD - 25" tall
Judging from your measurements and the overall height of this listed on the website (50") am I correct in saying that there is about 18" of space from the bottom cone fitting to the ground?

I don't have one yet to measure, those numbers we're all from Josh.
I used gimp and measured pixels on one of the pictures and I would guess there is about 15" from the bottom dump (on the triclover model) to the ground. These are my measurements though, maybe Josh or Dale can chime in
