    WalMart Fermenters

    Anyone here used those 5 gal plastic water bottles found at walmart as primary's? I knew them as Alhambra Bottles back in the day. Like 6 dollars a pop at walmart. I have done about 6 batches so far in them, I also have 3 @ 1/2 bbl kegs as fermenters I see no appreciable difference in taste...

    In Reference to "Gravity points first runnings vs sparge runnings"

    Hmmm , I just taste the runoff, as soon as i don't like it (not sweet, getting grainy,becoming acidic) i cut it off. Assuming i have met my volume i would rather add pure water than tannins.
