I’m thinking about getting into 10 gallon batches. Found a good deal on Craigslist for a keggle, ball valve, sight glass, false bottom and thermometer, 50qt tun, and a bunch of extras that I’ll probably just give to new beginners in my club.
I have plenty of fermenters for 1-6 gallon batches but when I make a 10 batch I really want to ferment in one container, unless experimenting. Outside of the nice $400 Conicals all I’ve been able to find is a plastic bucket that you don’t use an airlock. It doesn’t seal, it just works on active co2 pressure to keep th o2 out. That would be bad for me as some of my beers don’t get to the keg for a couple of months.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance!
