I have a couple of 20 ltr containers that had engine glycol coolant in them. Would it be OK to napisan them to use as a secondary, or start of fresh?

WOW...Holy Crap

Some of you must have a lot of room, or you are well organised?? I feel a buying spree coming on...

I had the same number in use when I used to ferment in a small space under the stairs.
I'd consistently have 2 fermenting while a couple would be in the secondary cubes.

 

[captian black beer]

2*60L
1*50L Glass Carboy - for mead etc
3*30L
1*20L
1*5L for test brews.

In total 275L being brewed in them when head space is taken into account.

They're full, am running out of bottles and kegs and still can't match demand.

Ahh the problems of home brew are many. But yet I love it still.
