Anybody have any experience with the Brewer's Hardware 15 gal conical? I purchased parts for a 2" RIMS tube from them recently and was very happy. Like the idea of a larger (2") bottom dump valve. Cleaning maybe easier with a Blichmann or similar with larger top opening as compared to the...

Briess, Rahr? Organic any different? Others?? What's your goto 2 Row?

Been using a 10# tank on my keezer that I got via an exchange from my local Airgas store and have had zero issues. I recently purchased a spare 5# tank (new) to use for random CO2 needs, transferring sani to kegs, pressurizing kegs to store and so on.... was hooking up and testing a gas line...
