Looking for fermenters

[Leblais]

I never saw the square ones! I really wanted to get the round ones when I saw them but they woulndt fit.
Any idea on the dimensions? I cant find them on the site or anywhere else for that matter... Seems they are the only place that carries the square ones and they are out of stock too!

check these square ones out! im going to get 4 60l ones to fit in my fridge

I'm gonna drive over to more beer today to grab some ingredients, the always have stuff on the rack. Ill go look at the sizing. What size do you want to look at?

After doing the conversion on there, it seems that 2 would fit WONDERFULLY!! JUST MAKE IT! 20.08L x 13.78W x 21.6H

I may have to just order up 4 of these bad boys!!! Not sure if I will be able to left them back INTO the fermentation chamber, but that will be the next challenge!

I see 555 x 350 x 500 mm (l x w x h), which is not what you list in inches.

26.65"L x 13.78"W x 19.68"H, I fail to see how 2 will fit?

They seem to long to me at 21.85".

Id add a little space for the handles. Im assuming they are a little wider.

Am i doing conversions correctly?? How is 555mm equal to 26.65? I am getting 21.85" long at 555mm and these are the dimensions I had seen : Type O, L = 510 mm, W = 350 mm, H = 520 mm

I see 555 x 350 x 500 mm (l x w x h), which is not what you list in inches.

26.65"L x 13.78"W x 19.68"H, I fail to see how 2 will fit?

yeah i am thinking that those handles may mess things up

2nd try....copied from site

Size:- 555 x 350 x 500 mm (l x w x h)
weight:-8kg

21.65"L x 13.78"W x 19.68"H, I fail to see how 2 will fit?

using your #'s, I still fail to see how 2 of these will fit using your meas.?

The sight I found had a slightly different dimension... I wonder if there are different styles or if the quoted size is incorrect

I have learned you really can't trust any dimensions listed.

Good luck.

ugg.... maybe i should just use 4 cornie kegs and pressure ferment ? I have at least 8 of them and i think 4 would fit... just need some pressure relief valves I guess....

Put a Spiedel sticker on them and chuckle the way to the bank....

Spiedel appears to be coming out with squared fermenter. They are posted on morebeer as coming soon. But not till August I think, which could mean November. ..

What do you guys think about using cornies to ferment in? I can fit 6 of them in there PERFECTLY! Is there an easy way to convert these into fermenters? The 9 inch diameter is amazing for my set up. I suppose I could make 9 gallon batches and have enough room for 3 of them in there. Any down sides of this you can think of? I just started using anti foaming agent (vegetable based) in my boil kettle. (13 drops) and it seems to have cut down a bit on my krausen in the fermenters. Maybe if I am only using 4.5 gallons of wort in the cornies (since they actually hold a bit more than 5 gallons) I will have enough head space? What do you guys think??

I found 2 different places with these dimensions Lenght: 510 mm, width : 350 mm, height : 520 mm --- i guess that still doesnt help me though
