Fermenter - a review of a product

Post by tomgndallas »

I recently decided to try this fermenter out, and so far it is working great. Cambro has a line of food grade plasic, HDPE fermenters that are translucent and have graduations in gallons and liters on the side. The lids snap down tight, not air tight, so no need for an airlock. I have made two batches of wine primary fermentation and just finished a WPOSW using both the 22QT and 18 QT size.

I ordered from these guys, talk about amazing customer service. An agent contacts you back directly and personally updates you on the status of the shipment etc.

I am really happy with these fermenters. I wanted a few small ones to experiment in, so far so good. and they are priced right!

Yes. Of the ones I have.....this style is my favorite.....

The taller 5-6 gallon deals from the brew shop are a pain in the ass to use with my mop sink. where as these here fit quite nicely underneath the faucet for clean up and so forth.

Scale in the gallon/liter is very handy and the containers are clear enough to see how well suspended solids are dropping.

Thanks for that link. I have been buying those containers from GFS but paying a lot more than those prices.
