Yeah it's just a generic sanke the same as you would see at a brewery or a pub I think in imperial it's 15.5 gal or 50 litres in metric they make excellent fermenters the only pain is making sure you have cleaned everywhere since you can't see through it haha

I'm not at home at the moment, so I can't take a picture but this one is exactly what I do with mine.

I just use a carboy cap stretched over the mouth with a bubbler

That is exactly what I'm thinking of doing, what a great idea 23L is just not enough haha

Hi everyone, Sorry about reviving an old thread, I have a 15.5 gal sanke and am going to try this, but I'm unsure about the recipe.. Do I just double all ingredients like you would a cake mix etc? Thanks in advance!

Yeah I think the coolest we get here is around -1C and that's at 4am.. enough to frost over the windscreen in the car but not enough to do much else. That sounds like a good brew your putting down I love pilsners, I'm trying to get a lowenbrau clone and have some saaz hops to add 15 minutes...

I'd like to know how that euro lager comes out, as it's winter here in australia I have a black rock pils with some specialty grain and wyeast 2278 lager strain it'll be my first real lager!

I tried this and after a month and a half in the bottle it is getting better but it had a huge bitter over tone up until now guessing because of the double whammy of hops.

Hi there, I stumbled on this thread since I too have the same brew bottled with coopers carbonation drops, I used a clearing agent which was just gelatine dissolved in hot water and added to the primary. The bottles have been conditioning now for 2 weeks and have the same little white particles...
