So I am looking to upgrade my fermentation situation. Currently I just use 2 6.5 gallon plastic carboys. Looking at either moving to 14 gallon Spike or SS Brewtech conicals or possibly the fastferment conical.
Things that are important.
1. Would like to be able to do pressure transfers to keg.
2. Some kind of temp control. possible calling and heating.
3. Easy dry hopping.
4. Possibly pressure fermentation.
5. Easy cleaning possibly with CIP.
Also would a SS conical make better beer than a plastic one? If the fast ferment is decent I would not mind saving the money over the SS options. But I also only want to do this once. I just got into this a couple months ago and wanted to wait to see if I liked it before spending money on fermenters but I really like this hobby and have made a couple solid beers already so looking to keep this going long term.
