Interested in this fermenter, has anyone ever used this site? I've never seen it before.
Cheers

There was a group buy a few years back where all the equipment was bought and shipped from Italy to Ireland. It was all purchased through that site

I got the 30l ones - they were very good. I got the taps but kinda regretted that - but others have loved the taps - to whatever floats your boat

That looks lovely - I'd be interested in getting one of those myself - been using my cooler - mash tun to store my carboy in, this looks great though - pity they're out of stock

I sent an email, they said they'd be back in stock by the end of October. I got some measurements back from them and it might be a couple of centimeters too tall for my term chamber, shame.
Sure I might buy one anyway

This is what they sent me

- Stainless steel 18/10
- capacity 50 liter
- Height  58cm
- Width:  37,5cm
- Diameter:  20cm
- handles

It's the height that's screwing me

If you are really interested maybe we could order two and hopefully get a discount on the postage which is nearly the same price as the fermenter

You'll need more space above if using an airlock too

I did think postage would be that much!
Didn't even think of that tbh
I guess if postage wasn't too much I'd still consider it.....

The site is legit but you need a large order to offset shipping costs. Mine arrived on a europallet
