anyone using a conical fermentation tank? i really do not like the racking process from primary to secondary vessel for numerous reasons, and am curious how effective the tanks are. i guess the drawback is that you could only do one batch at a time per tank, as opposed to timing batches based on available primary pails and carboys.

the ss ones can get real pricey. i saw one with a "floating" top, which I guess works on the same principal as the large storage tanks used for petroleum products, which eliminates the head space in the fermenting vessel.
the high quality plastic ones are nice, and I recently saw one on e-bay with 2 spigots and built in stand (think water cooler) for under $200.
I have for a couple years now and have really been into trying microbrews and experimenting with my beers. I think my ideal job would be to own a brewery.
I might enter into a homebrewing contest that takes place in the Poconos in NOV....some great breweries are showing up and looks to be a good time.

well i did make a wort immersion chiller which is similar to the flux capacitor and looks like this:I was waiting for you to mention the flux capacitor, then I would have known you were BS'ing
