If the tax man smiles on me this year I am looking at buying a Blichmann Conical (14 Gallon).
I see there are 2 variants available - one with a flat lid and one with a domed lid. As the domed lid variant is the later of the 2 models available (and the more expensive).
The website says that the fermentable volume in the domed lid is greater (by a couple of litres). This wont be an issue as 30L is the biggest batch I will make.
The pictures of the domed lid look like the clamping of the lid is done with a big clover type clamp - looks a bit clumsy.
Apart from that does anyone who uses a conical have any comments.
Thanks
