Hi! I'd like to invest a bit of money into a moderately-sized system (with the dream/idea of starting a nano/microbrewery in the next couple of years), but I figured I should ask some advice first! Currently, I'm doing small (15L or so) brew-in-a-bag batches using a 35L pot on my (gas)...

Hiya -- I recently moved across the Atlantic, so am in the process of rebuilding my equipment collection. At the moment, I am lacking anything for use as a bottling bucket. My plan is to eventually pick up a carboy or demijohn to use as my fermentor, and use my plastic bucket for...
