I finally broke down and bought a conical fermenter. I read the reviews send some e-mails and decided to spend the extra money and get a Blichmann in favor of a Brewhemoth. I just couldn't get to terms with just a 4 inch opening for cleaning.
I just "transferred" my first batch from the primary to the secondary fermenter. LOVE IT! Just open a valve and done!
I should have posted this before though since I was not sure how to dry hop it, so I just removed the air valve and put the hops in there. Should I have used some sort of hop ball to contain the hops?
The other thing I love about this thing is that I finally used the hydrometer for the first time. I brewed about 15 batches without it but it's kind of fun to "see" where the beer is at.
So, if you have the money, buy one! I am already contemplating getting another one. Where does it end.......
