Keeping up with the demand for relatively cheap and delicious Hefeweizen amongst my friends is becoming difficult so I've decided to take it upon myself to create a 50L capacity fermenter this Christmas break.
Here's my inspiration.
Using this monster will allow me to ferment two 19L batches at a time and save me the hassle of cleaning 2 of everything (other than the corny kegs) plus it'll be really damn cool... I've found numerous websites that sell new and used corny lids, which I'll be ordering later this month. It is my intention to attach a removable plastic spigot to the side of the fermenter approximately 1" from the bottom of the keg, like the ones I already use on my ale pails. It allows me to ditch the racking cane and easily discard the worst of the yeasty beer.
Any unforeseen problems that HBT'ers might expect me to encounter?
