A lot of people start homebrewing in plastic buckets, so those fermenters would do. As long as you were careful with the bottling spout, I am sure it would work fine.BSTrubClubhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04857950109733297202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3889377834174314732.post-38957119231248110032009-05-12T13:16:00.000-04:002009-05-12T13:16:00.000-04:00Thanks for the great response.

Is the spigot contraption delicate in any way that would discourage its use in any other manner than the last, bottling step?JSKChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16876910098699912427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3889377834174314732.post-76162127660580750212009-05-12T12:54:00.000-04:002009-05-12T12:54:00.000-04:00Yes when we strained into the bucket before puttin...Yes when we strained into the bucket before putting in the Carboy, and that bucket had the other two gallons of very cold water we needed to get our batch up to total volume. So yes, I let it cool most of the way in the bucket, because glass can be touchy, and I dont even want to risk the slightest chance of breaking.<br /><br />With carboys, using the blowoff tube (the setup I have pictured) has two purposes:<br /><br />1) The larger tube means more CO2 can escape the tube (through the bucket of sanitized water) versus a regular airlock, which minimizes pressure buildup in the carboy.<br /><br />2) In scenarios where the yeast get really active, you have a clean area setup for bubble over to go (through the tube, into the sanitizer), as opposed to blowing the lid off a bucket or cork from a carboy.<br /><br />And yes, we re-sanitized the bucket during the wort boil.<br /><br /><br />;-)BSTrubClubhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04857950109733297202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3889377834174314732.post-61387159675075461742009-05-12T12:00:00.000-04:002009-05-12T12:00:00.000-04:00Just a few newbie-researching questions:
