POLY VS. POLY FERMENTING BUCKETS

Mar 02, 2006 0 Replies

Polyethylene versus polypropylene?



Which type of fermenter is better?



Does it matter?



What is the largest size ferementer any of you have ever used?



I own about seven 5-gallon plastic buckets and three glass demi-johns.



Actually, they're about half the size of demi-johns, so that would make them demi-demi-johns.



I want to make a large batch of beer in one container, rather than several small ones.



Anything to be wary of?



Would I need, let's say, 3 or 4 airlocks in a 55-gallon barrel?
