Best plastic fv bins.

Well over £100 with a pressure kit aren’t they?

Think so. Not disputing the advantages of these things but a fermenting bucket costs ~£8 and they've always done what I need them to do.

 

[samale]

I also have two of them to go with two spiedel ones. Cheap as chips, no need for an airlock

In GBP sterling 70 for 2 with the pressure kits.

In Australia? You can’t even get one for that over here.

I don’t think this is the same model as yours, but £60 without the pressure kit or £80 with.

I wouldn't be getting any of the Chinese Fermzilla range, they are having no end of problems with them stress fractures around the neck, leaking, and exploding at low pressure. One guy over here got a piece of plastic lodged in his neck missed his jugular by a couple of centimeters.

So are Fermzilla made in China and Fermentasaurus in Australia?

I thought they were the same company?

Fermentasaurus is extinct now, it is the Fermenter King is the new version, along with the Snubnose and Fermenter king Junior. All made here in Melbourne by Keg King.

The Fermzilla family are all made in China Keg Land has no manufacturing plant in Australia.


This is just a few of the many mishaps with the Fermzilla the exploding bottle is where a piece pierced the users neck as he was bent over it. There is also a video on line of one in Sweden which burst open at 10 psi

Wow no thanks
It’s a tenner bucket from the Range or my SS Fermenter for me thank you very much

 

[foxy]

Just putting out an option for anyone who wants to pressure ferment.

 

[pms67]

I’m already under pressure by brewing in the house!!!

33l £12.50. Great value and they don't leak. i have 5 and a 60l version. Fermonsters are good but nearly 3 times as much.

I knew that the Fermentasaurus people had a falling out and one set stuck with Keg King and the other went out in their own but assumed they were all pretty much using the same gear just with different designs.

Fermentasaurus...extinct! Hunted to death by the homosapiens brewer..

 

[foxy]

This is what I used for years, throw the lid away keep the rubber seal, cling film over the top held in place with the rubber seal, no airlocks.
I have either 5 or 6 of the snub nose now, two of them I won, but it is mesmerising to watch the movement in the Snubnose

Just as a matter of interest how many folk have thought about having a go at pressure fermenting? I don't though I have done it, another advantage is dry hopping in a secondary, being able to purge the oxygen and transferring free from oxygen.

The only reason I would get into pressure fermenting would be to brew NEIPA. Other than that a stranded fermentor should be enough for most people. What other advantages can pressure fermenting give you.

Best advantage is carbonating the beer in the fermenter. And of course the dry hopping in a secondary.

Are you drinking straight from the fermentor
