Homebrewing: Larger fermenters
Posted on 11/13/13 at 2:15 pm

I'd like to start brewing larger batches. 10 gallons or so. I want to get a half barrel sanke keg for fermenting and was wondering if anybody knows the best place to shop for them. Ebay has them new for about $120. I also found a sanke fermenter conversion kit that costs about $80.
Just wondering if anybody knows better prices or if what I've seen is what I should expect to spend.

They seem to pop up here and on craigslist all the time for pretty cheap.

That's a really good price for a new sanke keg. The cheapest I've seen them is for around $125.
99% of the used kegs you see posted for sale online are kegs that a deposit was placed on and never returned.

New is obviously better, but is there a problem with using a used one I found on craigslist if I go that route?

No, a used keg will work just as well as a new one.

Sabco has really fancy fermentation vessels made from sanke kegs.

Saw those but don't feel like spending $500 on one.
