Tax Return=New Fermenter

beeraggie · Jan 28, 2008

Since SWMBO made me use my very nice Bonus to pay off all the credit cards and car loan; I get to use my tax return however I want. I am thinking SS conical fermenter. Any suggestions on which ones I should consider??? I am excited about moving from glass carboys to a SS conical.

PS.. Money back from the IRS is the sweetest money you can spend!!!!

:ban:

I cannot provide any feedback. But when you get it, you've gotta post a LOT of pictures.

someday, I'll drop the cash on one...after I have a keggle and a need for 10gal of fermenting space.

Well do you do 10 gallon or 5 gallon batches? I only do 5 gallons at a time as I rather brew more often. I have the Blichmann 7 gallon conical and love it. Although I do use my carboy for it simplicity and it has never let me down.

I currently do 5 gallon batches, but want to get a conical that will work for 10 as I plan to scale up my production in the near future. I hear nothing but good things about Blichmann and was thinking of going that way, but I was just checking to see if anyone has something that they feel is the best bang for your buck.

Thanks for the feedback

I've got a Blichmann 14 gal. I like it but it's kinda pricey nowdays. If I was starting from scratch I think I'd modify a Keg or get one of the plastic conicals from:

or

http://www.plastic-mart.com/class.php?item=135

or

http://www.usplastic.com/catalog/pr...USPlastic&category_name=20726&product_id=3863

somebody posted the other day that the GVM inductor tanks seal better than Plastic Marts or US Plastic.

But IMHO the Blichmann is the Cadillac.
