Threaded fittings and fermenter...
Posted: Wed Mar 16, 2005 8:04 am
First I'd like to say thanks to all the experts here! I've been reading for about a month and a half and am confident that I can begin construction of my first still shortly and have been patiently collecting components.
I've noticed that threaded brass seems standard as opposed to threaded copper; is this just a preference or is there a better reason since copper is cheaper (for me).
For a fermenter I am considering picking up a 45 gallon (70 gallon?) plastic drum which is NOT food grade and am wondering if this will taint the wash.
Thanks.
