That was very informative! Thanks for the post! Every year I say I’m going to enter a competition and I don’t for whatever reason but I really should.

Hello and welcome from Pa! Where at in Ca? I spent a few years on the central coast.

Found it on Amazon, I couldn’t figure out how to add a link, it’s early and I haven’t had any coffee yet. Personally I’d make a half a batch and bottle it all then no keg, lines or tap to worry about cleaning. This will either be totally epic or hilariously horrible either way you gotta post back.

Welcome from Pa!

Yes, that is exactly what I was going to suggest.

Can you buy another fermenter? They are cheaper than another keg, then you can make another batch.

Unless you really need the fermenter I’d just leave it in there. How long would you be leaving it in? My longest is about 4 months in primary before kegging and that is just because life got on the way.

5 more gallons. 74+5=79

Oh man that sounds frustrating, shortly after I started kegging I bought another tank because I always ran out when I was having friends over or at night when I couldn’t even get a swap or fill from anywhere. You cold just add some sugar and let it naturally carbonate while your away and deal...

Welcome back from Pa!

not sure what your issue is if it’s a 5 gallon style bucket any lid that style should fit, I’ve got different lids on different buckets now, some are harder to get on but they do fit.

@odie ill get some pics this weekend, it’s not in use at the moment and has some garage stuff piled in front of it that I plan to deal with while I’m off.

I also have THAT ONE also and love it! But since I started kegging I’ve only used it a handful of times now but so glad when I bottle up a few bottles for gifts it makes things so simple.

That bloody one looks like mine. From 1949

@odie do you have any pics of them? I’d like to see some pics, I love those old fridges.

Welcome from Pa!

On their website it shows this in it, unless there is an add on kit? If not you can order all that stuff in the picture from brewhardware.com or any other place that sells stainless fittings.

You need one of these. https://www.brewhardware.com/product_p/coolermashfb5.htm

Your lifting glass carboys out of a chest freezer???!!!!!!! Your going to be the next story in the broken carboy horror thread! I’m sorry I have no comment to make on a fermenter, I use buckets and I recently acquired some converted 1/2 barrel kegs that I will be using once I finish my new ferm...
