Hi all,
Newby here so I apologise if I am repeating a topic which has been answered in the past. I have had a look through past threads and can't find anything which directly answers my question, plus there is a lot of lingo I don't understand (e.g. cubes..??? etc).
Anyway a quick background. I used to home brew years ago and got right into it and was running 5 x 30lt fermenters with 9 corny kegs. It was hit and miss, some great and some ordinary. Looking back it was the simple brews which were the best. I then went to our local micro brewery who filled and brewed your kegs for you. I used to leave the 9 kegs there and he'd use them for his surplus which worked out well for me as well as him....UNTIL he went bust and when I went into town to grab my kegs the premises was all locked up. So yeah I lost all 9 kegs with the bankruptcy.
I now have 3 corny kegs and am running the kegerator beer fridge which fits the 3 kegs perfectly. I plan on keeping it simple and was hoping to do just one brew (as in one fermenter) to fill the 3 kegs. I also am most likely going to stick with the 3 coopers brews which used to work so well for me, plus the misses likes them (unlike many of my past 'experiments').
So very simply, my way of thinking was that a 60lt fermenter would be perfect to fill the 3 x 19lt Corny kegs.
Is this correct and if so, is a combo of two brew tins the correct combo bearing in mind that 1 tin is designed for a 30lt fermenter???
I really would appreciate any help on this one and look forward to getting back into it. No doubt I will experiment but I really am keen on just the one fermenter.
Cheers,
Hodgo.
