So I've done 2, 6 gallon kits thus far and I already see the need to replace by 7.9 gallon bucket that I'm using for primary. I see scratches at the bottom from stirring the concentrate with water, and recently I see a discolored spot at the bottom, which does not sit well with me at all. No infections or off flavors yet. These buckets don't seem to have a long life. It's really annoying, because, it's about $30 including the lid.
Other than demi-johns and conicals, what do you guys use for primary?
I'm actually tempted to use a 6.5 gallon glass carboy and use fermcap-S. At over $100 a kit, that seems like a big risk though and probably stupid.
