The Brew Belt and 7.9 Gallon Buckets

[LCTitan]

Will the Brew Belt work on 7.9 Gallon Bucket fermentors when making wine?

Yes. I use one. It works great to get the must up to temp and fermentation started. Watch your temp because you may have to unplug it for a day or two during max fermentation then plug it back in for the rest of the week. They say not to use it more then 7 days.

Got one on a bucket right now. A RJ Spagnols RQ Cab Franc/Merlot.

Can't wait for this one!

I'm not a wine guy, and I ferment my beer in Sanke kegs, but I goggled it. This link says it'll fit on 7.5 gallon buckets. I'm not sure what the difference is to a 7.9 gallon bucket, since I've never seen one.

BTW, I lived in Terre Haute, IN for a while, then Shelbyville, IN for a while.

That's exactly why I was asking about using the Brew Belt on a 7.9 Gallon bucket.

It's fully adjustable and fit's about anything from 3 to 10 gal. Nothing to sweat.
