Since giving up bottling and going all-keg I've had issues with all my cold conditioning solutions:
CC in primary fermenter. Works well but too much yeast carry over and I'd rather harvest un-shocked yeastcake.
Willow Jerry 20L. Actually holds 23-24 L . Good for bottlers. Overkill for kegging and too much headspace.
FWK size square cube. Excellent solution and cheap but hard to clean.
Bunnings etc wide-mouth 25L water carriers: good to clean but far too big for requirements.
I've finally tracked down an excellent wide-mouth from BCF. It's nominal 20L but holds 21 full to the brim (which isn't necessary, as long as there's not too much headspace to CO2 flush)
WALLET WARNING:
this product is not cheap, at around $27 plus BYO tap - however it's super robust and a joy to clean and use. Note the trub "well" at the bottom. has an O ring as well and is ideal for a single keg brew. Takes up about the same space as a Ross FWK cube.
