First post! Thanks to the kviek guy at noble grape for letting me know about this group!
So, in the market to upgrade from glass carboys. Cant seen to find a Fermzilla All Arounder in stock anywhere. I like the idea of the easy cleaning and pressure transfers to kegs. I don't think I need a conical (not going to serve out of it, and don't want to fuss with saving yeast)
Thoughts? Alternatives? Someone have a dusty one I can try out?

Re: Fermentors, All-Rounder
ferment in a corny. They are cheap, not plastic (plastic is the devil), easy to take apart to clean and you can ferment/carb to serving carbonation using a spunding valve. Plus you probably already have some.

Re: Fermentors, All-Rounder
Do you trim your dip tubes? Or use a picnic tap to eject the yeast? I assume you're moving it to a "serving keg"Taylor Vanbrewer wrote: ↑Mon May 17, 2021 4:33 pmferment in a corny.

Well, I don't have an all arounder, but I do have 5 plastic fermenters and have had no off flavours from them. But, to each his own.

I removed the liquid dip tube and replaced it with a gas dip tube and one of these.
You could serve from the same keg, but I have been transferring to a serving keg.
