Hi,
I have only been using glass carboys as my fermentation vessels for years. But I've been thinking about the pros and cons of getting a SS conical. One thing I'm not clear on...
Can you easily take sample for taste and gravity readings from the rotating racking arm? Is that how it's done? Does this not lead to sanitation issues like many warn about with the plastic spigots on brew buckets?
Just never been clear on how one samples with a conical, but something easier and cleaner than dipping a wine thief into a carboy would be nice.
Thanks.
