So I picked up a sanke keg on CL. It looked like it was just painted, but no, it has the plastic crap on the top and bottom.
I had hoped to use this for boil, but I think I read where it's really just not worth it to get rid of all the plastic crap - messy and ugly. Am I wrong? Did I imagine this? Wouldn't be surprising! LOL
So I thought I could use it as a fermentor. Flush it with some CO2 and I could ferment an entire batch at a time instead of doing it in two separate carboys. . .
What do you think?
With the first, I can cut the top easy. With the second, how would I remove the "equipment" while still keeping the nice neat hole, and any suggestions to stopper it (aside from a big stopper, which would be the easy way, and perfectly fine. . . )
My thanks. I did search but didn't come up with much.
