My boyfriend recently introduced me to the wonderful world of home brewing. I love it but our vinator does not work well. Does anyone know of a better option?
besides the bucket there isn't much to replace a vinator.. i recently got one and love how simple it is.. combine that with a bottle tree and you're set when bottling
What exactly is your problem with the vinator? It is one of the most easiest and effective tools out there. You can sanitize 50 bottles in under 10 minutes. There really is nothing more "effective" or simpler to use.
SO what specifically is the issue? You may have a bad vinator, but the vinator itself is not bad.
I intend to get one eventually after having used it. It's nice to be able to do 12 at once, plus you can buy more than one tray and load up while the other is sanitizing but again, needs a lot more accessories (pump etc) than a vinator
Like Revvy's, mine split, but I noticed that after I started having problems with it sticking. When I took it apart, I noticed a reddish Iodophor buildup everywhere, so now (with my new one), I empty it and rinse it after every use.
My first one lasted five years and I've had some second for about 6 months.
