Have just picked up two of these to do my temperature controlled fermentations in as I can fit the two side by side in the brew fridge and do double batches of similar styles :beerbang:
Before I go and place sweet sweet wort on top, I would like to know if
a ) anyone had much success using these to do primary fermentations in? (i suspect yes!?)
b ) more importantly, the "plastic" smell from them is a little disconcerting... What would be the best way to remove the "new plastic" smell out of these before I ruin two batches of beer, or infact, will it be noticeable... I just dont seem to remember such a smell from my fermenters when they were new?? :unsure: The fermenters now smell like beer and I also have a dedicated GB fermenter which surprise surprise, smells like ginger...
Any help would be great!! Keep up the great work with the forum BTW. I'm a long time reader, unfortunately I dont have too much to add in the way of experience... Only been at it for about a year
Cheers
