This Chubby has been on my radar for a little while. I like the idea of single vessel or using it as a keg..
After 10 months of using it I still love it! I'm changing how I ferment beers so all my brews can be pressurised during fermentation
@@KegThat that's good to know. Have you had experience with any other pressure fermenters? Probably a toss up between this or a corny keg.
I used a Fermzilla a couple of years ago, but found it a bit difficult to keep pressurised and it has more parts than the Fermenter King so found I needed to pay extra attention to sanitisation. Newer models have come out since, maybe they address some of these issues? I have fermented in a corny keg, I'd recommend swapping a floating dip tube for the existing one but depending how much you brew these can be a great option too. Do you have a keg setup?
@@KegThat No, no kegs at the mo, just bucket and pressure barrel/ bottles. I've been happy with the results so far, just wondering if a pressure/ keg setup would be worth it for my next move
@@bigsqueegie Something to take into consideration would be how to serve/transfer from the PF without an existing CO2 setup. Happy to give advice but was wondering if you had a plan?
I'd say pressure fermenting for "clean" styles (IPAs, certain stouts, lagers etc) has really been a game changer.
I only bottle but found this very interesting to watch, cheers :)
