Review on 🍺 Optimized for SEO: FASTFERMENT - FF3G 3 Gallon Conical Fermenter - Ideal for 3-Gallon or Small Batch 1-Gallon Fermentation (Includes Stand and Hardware) by Erin Ellis

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The lid is leaking and cannot be closed.

Good idea, but there are some problems. The lid doesn't close at all. doesn't even get into the sluice. I sprayed soapy water around the lid after the second day of fermentation to see how bad and leaking it was and was surprised by the amount of bubbles that came out from under the lid. had to use a rubber strap around the cap and a racquet strap around the tank to hold it in place to tighten the cap and bubbles still came out. The tank moves a lot in stance but doesn't tip over. just means each beat and it's moving, so it can't be kept level. nice concept of yeast and sediment getting to the bottom of the glass. Just don't use the jar they send a large mason jar or you'll be wasting your time since you can unscrew the jar without overfilling where it will spill all over the place. If the lid didn't leak so terribly I'd be happy with the rest, just get some tape, a new can (or a bottom drain hose nozzle) and a marker to align the bile marks.

Pros
  • Something about it
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly
