If so would you reccomend it?
Thanks.
Thanks.
Yeah I'm interested in buying one too. Ebay has them but shipping is like $80 here.
German pils with Motueka and Saaz in the Fermentasaurus now.
Filled to 30.5 liters (35 liters is the size of the vessel) so hopefully the pressure keeps the krauesen under control. Spunding valve disn't arrive (despite allowing 8 days for shipping) so I'll have to do the pressure release manually over the first few days.
What are your initial thoughts on quality and design? If you are in the US where did you get yours?

Nice one. Are you planning on adding priming sugar before bottling, or force-carbing in the fermentasaurus then bottling with the bottling gun?
I bottled a few directly from the fermentasaurus and they came out pretty good, no yeast cake at the bottom of the bottles and carbonation seems to be holding well.
I'm doing 30L batches in mine too, since my boil kettle can handle it, might as well use the space since it's there.
I'm told the threads are the same as a sodastream bottle, so if you jack it up on bricks you can connect a larger collection bottle. My fridge doesn't have the height for this, but otherwise it seems like a good idea.
So I recently moved to 7.9 gallon speidels. Headspace issue is gone! But even with upgraded valves on the bottom racking has been a nightmare. They keep getting clogged from all the trub and not being able to see where the dip tube is has made trying to rack from the top via a closed transfer method difficult.
I would wonder what is causing you to have so much that it is causing you to have these kind of racking issues??
I was looking at their website and I noticed they adapted the clear beer system for withdrawal. I wonder if the clear beer guys know that they are infringing on their patent if it's sold in the US? I own two of the clear beer systems and it looks pretty much identical, just not in a Cornelius keg.
