Re: fermentation tub
a stainless steel conical with integrated heating/cooling.. ? :p
failing that, if it's the plastic FVs getting scratched that's causing concern, then stainless steel stockpots might be the answer

Re: fermentation tub
Even if you have to change them regularly, plastic FVs represent the best value IMO. Have you tried the "yorkshire Square" fermenters
Im currently using these - the 32L PP Storage Boxes sold in all manner of shops; mine come from Tesco on special offer and cost me £4 each....just check they have the knife and fork symbol on em.
