Does anyone have an opinion regarding the relative size of the primary? I make about 100 gal/.year and this is plit into three primaries. I would like to go to one primary so that I can do 1/3 the work and also lessen the variability. It seems that when one is done, typically the others are at slightly different stages. Not to mention , the temps and fermentation activty throughout the process varies between the three. Thoughts? I was looking for a vessel large enough, but I get into the $300 range before shipping. This is a little more than I want to spend when I already spend $700 on grapes.
