I've finally decided to retire my elderly plastic fermenters.

Arriving this afternoon:
  • a 32l kegland SS Conical
    neoprene heating belt
    neoprene insulation jacket
I just need to decide what to brew.
A simple bitter I think.

It will come with lots of cardboard to soak up the inevitable spillages and leaks caused by user error.

I'm a happy Charlie.
This is the first time that I've had anything to say about beer on here for ages.

Is that real 32l brimmed, or a Malt Miller 32l which is about 48l? 🤣🤣

And let's not forget the BM20 which is about 36l.

it will be plenty big enough for my 23l brew length.

all assembled and ready for cleaning and brewing at the weekend.

my Inkbird arrived today so all good to go.

I'll still be a crap brewer though.
