FastFerment 7.9 Gallon Plastic Wall Mount Conical Fermenter (Stand Not Included) by FastRack

Es muy buen tanque fermentador y de Reposo, recomendado.

Hatte anfangs etwas Arbeit alles dicht zu bekommen weil ich Angst hatte die plastikgewinde zu überstehen, hält aber super alles topp

rubinetto rotto alla apertura

J ai achète ce cône de décantation afin de réaliser ma propre bière. le produit est livre complet.... support mural, robinetterie... tout y est. très bon produit, un grand volume et légèrement transparent.

I have 2 Fastferment conical 7.9gal fermenters, and I have been using them for about a year. This is the least expensive conical out there, and literally has the most features available regardless of price. SAMPLING PORT easily take samples for gravity readings and tasting without any danger of contamination and without having to use a wine thief (sampling port kit costs $14 on Amazon but once you've got one and have the drill bit, you can add generic sampling ports to subsequent Fastferments for much less) THERMOWELL A Metal - to metal connection goes straight into your wort giving an accurate reading without any danger of contamination. Thermowell is included but the thermometer will set you back $18 on Amazon. BALL COLLECTION VALVE This is the main advantage of conicals in general - great for dumping trub and harvesting yeast (also means no need for a secondary fermenter - just dump the trub and you're in secondary). One vessel means no racking and a lot of saved time!). This also means you can bottle straight out of the fermenter (again, no racking to a bottling bucket = saved time and reduced opportunity for oxidization) WALL MOUNT This is awesome for limited space users and this is truly unique feature. Wall brackets included. MILKY COLOR PLASTIC This means you can't see the fun swirling movement during fermentation, but it also protects your fermentation from sunlight. I still wouldn't leave it in direct sunlight but it doesn't need to be in a dark closet. GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE Fastferment's team is unbeatable. I stupidly drilled my sampling port too low and wrecked a vessel. Fastferment sent me a new vessel for just the cost of shipping. They did not need to do that and it goes to show how hard they work to do right by their customers. ONLINE VIDEOS Fastferment has made plenty of online videos to help with setup and use With all that said, there are some cons: SCREW TOP LID I have gone through 6 lids to find 2 that will seal to the point where my airlock will bubble correctly. The lid seals adaquately to prevent infection, but most of them are not an exact enough fit to get the airlock to bubble. This is just an annoyance since it is fun to see the airlock bubbling. Don't worry though - fermentation is still happening and luckily you can take samples via the sampling port which is the true way to check on your fermentation's progress anyway. There is a thick layer of C02 sitting on your wort protecting it from oxidization, and I do not think any nasties are getting in past the screw top even though the seal is not 100% airtight. TEFLON TAPE Setup is a little tricky because you need to use LOTS of PTFE teflon tape to make sure nothing leaks. The videos cover this very well, and if you follow them you won't have a problem. I recommend on going ahead and getting yourself some extra teflon tape right off the bat. That way you will be able to use lots and lots the first time you set up the fermenter without worrying about exhausting the 1 roll that the Fastferment comes with. EASILY SCRATCHABLE This just means you have to be careful cleaning the inside. I just fill mine with a PBW solution for a few hours, dump it out through the bottom valve, and then just rinse. No problems so far. BPA is just not as hardy as PTE or stainless, so you have to be extra careful with it. COOLING JACKET IS NOT GREAT I did go ahead and buy the Fastferment cooling jacket and I didn't love it. It works for getting the temperature down, but requires 2x a day frozen bottle changes and I don't think it reduces the temp as much as advertised. I'm still experimenting with cooling but the best option would probably be a stand-up freezer with a temp controller. I haven't gone that way yet due to space but I may in the end. Currently I'm working with a Brewjacket immersion pro which is good for getting above or below ambient temp by 15 degrees but not by the 35 degrees advertised. INCLUDED BOTTLING TUBE IS NOT GREAT The fastferment comes with a too-short bottling tube and a clamp for controlling flow. I upgraded to a 1/2' silicon tube and a 1/2" racking cane and it works like a charm. Bottling out of this thing is so quick and easy once you get your setup right! Overall I am super happy with the Fastferment and would recommend it to anyone. Eventually when I have the $$, I would like to upgrade to one of the ridiculously nice stainless fermenters on the market. For now though, the Fastferment is a great system that is meeting all my needs and allowing me to spend my brewing equipment money on other aspects such as temperature control, yeast management, and all grain brewing equipment.
