wegz15, I left you a PM over the weekend. Hopefully you got it and we can arrange pickup for the 4L. Thanks!

Why do people choose to use these, as opposed to a growler? Any benefits?

They can be direct heated which results in less chances of contamination of starter wort. They're mostly immune to temp shock so you can cool quickly in an ice bath. Most have measurements so you know exact liquid amounts. Just to name a few.

Do you have any updates of what you have left? I would not mind a 2L if you have one, but would/could use others


Thanks!

Nevermind...

Interested in 500ml, 250ml, 125 ml and a 6 and a 4 - but curious what you've got left

I paid for 2 of the 4L flasks.

You can use direct heat to heat them but I wouldn't use an electric stove to do it. I did that before and with the element it gets hot spots. That stresses the glass in just one place and bang right on the stove the bottom falls off. Now i use a heated stirplate and all is good.

I have heard of people getting around that with an old pan with some sand in it...

 

[crazyirishman34]

That makes sense since it would spread out the heat. I just didn't want someone to have a 2Ltr starter and a ton of glass all over the stove.

I hear putting the flask in bigger pot with a water bath works as well for those who have electric stoves. I haven't tried it myself but plan to the next time I don't feel like using the side burner on my grill.

 

[crazyirishman34]

I bet that if you had just a cast iron fry pan that would be good too. I just like the stir plate because you don't have to worry about a boil over as much.

Like a 2L shipped to 32223, still have 1?

 

[wegz15]

Sorry guys I've been busy. I'll just say $8 shipping

 

[cripplecreek]

wegs, your inbox is full again, but I can come by and pick them up anytime this week. Would prefer something during the day and not during traffic if possible, let me know some times that would work for you.

Thanks!
