I ferment almost exclusively in BrewCraft 30L plastic fermenters. I have a couple of questions about these (that I probably should have asked a while ago).
1. Do I need to protect the beer inside from UV light? Or is the bucket an adequate shield?
2. After many batches, they have developed krausen stains in them. I assume that this is fine? No amount of scrubbing gets it off.
3. The bottom of these buckets are covered with tiny scratches. Not from me. It looks it was done at the factory. They aren't random, they are obviously done with an abrasive wheel. Why? I thought scratches in plastic buckets were bad.
