    Propane burner suggestions?

    Love the Blichmann burners...apparently the old models (not Hellfire) are at a discount because they aren't the newest version. Probably the most bang for your buck if you can find one used.

    MoreBeer Style Conical Fermenters

    Thanks for Blgd, some good ideas there. Unfortunately when I looked MoreBeer did not have a 27 gallon option for the lid upgrade. I asked about an option for that but never got an answer. For some reason the 14 gallon version isn't even on the website any more. I would love to upgrade to one...

    Recommendations for FV

    I suppose if you always have someone around on brew day that will work for you. For me not being able to do it myself when I needed to would be a big turn off. Just a heads up I also have seen some 15-20 gal conicals that will fit in a fridge. You can always find a $50 fridge on Craigslist...

    Recommendations for FV

    I have a couple 15 gallon torpedos I use as brite tanks, and they are awesome for the price. I remember a day when that was the going rate for the old 10 gallon corny kegs - these are in another class for sure. Still, I think your concerns about fermenting in them are valid. I certainly...

    MoreBeer Style Conical Fermenters

    Unfortunately I only wish the conical lid had a band clamp design - it does not. You can see the "locking" mechanism below - it is a bar that runs over the top and is used to put pressure down on the very middle of the lid by turning a wing nut (see below - my lid is stainless but that is a...

    MoreBeer Style Conical Fermenters

    Hey bkboiler here is what I'm talking about. It seems when these are manufactured they are one long piece and then glued together to form the gasket. Not sure why it is done this way versus a solid gasket.

    MoreBeer Style Conical Fermenters

    Thanks for the reply, yeah that review asking about the Blichmann one is what got me thinking I should look elsewhere to try and replace it. I'm just hoping someone with first hand experience can confirm an option that works before I drop any money on one.

    MoreBeer Style Conical Fermenters

    Does anyone have experience with the MoreBeer style conical fermenters? The ones with the flat top lid that seals with a gasket. I have two of these things that I purchased second hand - the 27 gal version. I love them other than a few minor flaws, one being that I have a hard time getting...

    For Sale 27 Gallon Semi-Automated Tippy Dump Setup (New England)

    Still available....willing to take offers on this and drive a reasonable distance. Can't imagine you can find a 27 gallon semi-automated brew system for much cheaper.

    For Sale 27 Gallon Semi-Automated Tippy Dump Setup (New England)

    You know I'm not sure to be honest. I bought this system used a little while ago as a package deal...I have been using the kettles with my setup (for their size) but not the stand or most of the extras. It came like that. As far as I'm concerned though it isnt a bad thing as it is still a...
