Hi all - another question to post...
I have been looking at all the variations in fermentation equipment. There is a lot of it out there. Of course, every one says how good they are. Hard to know for sure what to pick
Being in manufacturing, I like to reduce excess movement, handling, and processing. All of this just creates chances to mess things up. The bucket/carboy system seems wasteful and too many chances for contamination.
I am looking to limit my equipment to as few as pieces as possible and save space in my basement. The conical fermenters with bottling/sampling ports are really getting my attention.
Does anyone use these pieces of equipment? I really have my eye on one in particular - the Minibrew conical 8 gallon fermenter. It seems to have the right size, configuration and quality I want. At this point, it seems to be a proper match. I am curious if anyone has used this system.
Are there other options? Things to watch for? What do you think?
