12 gallon stainless conical $897.00

[Kyled93]

So are we looking for a 12 gallon or larger? I personally would like a 20+ gallon size.

 

[crazyirishman34]

14.5 gallon is what i priced

I looked into buying a few of those conicals direct from China. The ones that I was looking at also had triclamp fittings. They are about $300 FOB in china if you buy 10 or more. If you are willing to wait a month or so for them to show up with shipping a nice conical can be had for about $400

Fully pressurized?

12.5 gal, same as stouts 399 + ~$24 shipping... at least that would be the shipping price from PA to Tampa, FL.

He has the 7.3 gal for 299 + ~$20 shipping

Like I said, lets get a price from our Chinese brethren for one of these setups:

I like the looks of that set. What size are they? I'd be wanting 20 gallon kettles. If we can get some info on them I'd be interested in getting in.

The ones with the dome lid and triclamp top can be presurized to 5psi. The stout tanks are a 14.5gal not the 15.5 gallon

Those are not the same as Stout's fermenters.

if anyone is still interested in the 14.5gal fermentors I am still looking to do a group buy

Did you get a price? Is there any savings to be had? I might be interested depending on price, but I'd really like one of those 1bbl systems I posted the photo of. Let me know what you hear.

THANKS!

 

[crazyirishman34]

That is a different manufacturer that makes the 1 bbl system. the ones i was looking at were 470 fob

 

[Dillonks1]

Actually, they use the same manufacturer.

I've thought about buying direct from China, but I've also read horror stories where people don't get anything for their money or they get junk. I think I'd rather buy from a USA importer that will back up the product so I know I'm going to get what I paid for.

It's not worth the risk for the bit of savings, IMO. Let someone else deal with them and take the risk - I'll gladly pay a little extra to let them handle it. Since they deal with the companies all the time and have people in China, they are in a better position than you or I.

 

[crazyirishman34]

I think that you should talk exclusively for yourself. I have had dealing with people in China and feel confident that I would not be duped. The saving would be almost half of what you would pay to an "importer". If you think that the fellow from stout tanks or anyone else has special mojo that is not the case.

False stouts is very close to the price you would pay if you ordered directly.

 

[crazyirishman34]

The ones I was looking to order are the ones in the pictures with the domed lids, racking arm, thermowell ect. While the stout tanks are nice they have the odd clamping system to hold seal the lid. Also you can't pressure transfer with them. Also I talked to them about get some with cooling jackets

What did they say about the cooling jackets?
Where would they be hitting the US?
If we could get solid specs and shipping details so we can get a solid final cost, I could then decide to make a firm commitment or not.

Thanks again!
