I’m funny about plastic... I won’t ever ferment in a plastic, be it a bucket, carboy, or conical. Right now I use glass carboys. As soon as I stop getting excited watching the fermentation I’ll switch to stainless... But I don’t think that will ever happen.? With that said I’ve been following...

Hello from nw burbs of chicago. Cool you enjoy extract...! But quick question do you use hops in that beer? Spotted cow is a great beer!
