Fridge conversion question

[Gugs44]

It was an option I looked at but reading around I found that doing so I would have to make smaller batches to allow for krausen or any over active fermenting as the corny only allows for 19 litres, anyway besides that I'm sorted as the original brew kit I got was the coopers one,  that bucket fits perfectly on the bottom and my 33 litre buckets on top, heating tube and inkbird also purchased so all ready to go

Cheers

Yeah to be honest. I started off doing 17L to be on the safe side with a QD on the gas as a blow-off. But didn't need it. Last time I went for 19L minus QD not a problem. I just purge a bit of the release valve every day for the first few days and it's fine. No worries, no mess.

I sometimes use these boyos, if i have multiple brews that need fermenting at the same time (eg after brewing for a weekend at brewfest) 2 fit side by side in a fairly small fridge. You could probably fit 4 in a larder fridge.
They cost about €6 each and are food grade.

Cheers LE, where do you procure such items and what is the capacity, it's only around Xmas time I'd be doing multiple brews but these look great

I had thought about that route. Just out of curiosity how do you remove the contents? Syphon? The decent thing with the keg fermenting is transferring under pressure, I think it's one thing I just cannot live without now. Make kegging so much quicker (as of it needed to be any quicker!!!)
