Title: Grainfather Fermenter
Post by: irish_goat on May 09, 2017, 01:34:15 PM
There's a competition over on the Grainfather site to win one of the new conical fermenters with temp control that was showcased at BrewCon. No liking or sharing either so it's a nice and easy comp.

Any opinions on whether or not these are worth springing for?
I definitely need temperature control and was looking at the Brewjacket - wouldn't be in the market for the chiller upgrade for the GF option though.

It's the Maserati of fermenters. Incredible expensive for what it does but kind of pretty. I would much rather spend that sort of money on something else.

It certainly has the shiny bauble thing to it all right  ;D

Any recommendations for a more budget-friendly set up?

Items look lovely under a Christmas tree, and no need for wrapping

No need to wait 'til Christmas either, if certain people can persuaded on the necessity front!
