Hi all!
I was wondering if this would work:
I would modify a 50l sanke keg into a fermenter, by cutting a hole in the bottom and then use a corny top to cover it (bigger hole for better and easier cleaning), then I would also add one faucet in the middle for checking the gravity during the fermentation and another one on the top of the sanke keg (next to the keg valve) so I could let out the trub and the yeast post fermentation (so I would get something like a conical fermenter)...
could this keg be also used for dispensing beer or all the extra parts wouldn't handle the pressure from the CO2 tank? I am specially worried about the corny keg top, would it stay in place if I would let's say flip the keg over after the fermentation and would want to dispense beer thorough the keg valve?
thx all and tc :icon_chickcheers:
