So my boss just gave me a conical fermenter that was previously used for kombucha. It still has a pretty distinct kombucha smell, but I was wondering if I could clean it and use it for beer. I'm thinking I might have to use it as a solera for sours or something along those lines. My hesitation with that would be airspace and permeability of the plastic over time.
My other concern with it is that there's a hole drilled in it where a spigot was placed so there could be microbes still living in the area that was drilled out. Does anyone have experience with a similar situation?
