Just sent BribieG this PM...
anyone else like to chime in on these 20L willow containers. (well 23L). They look like they were a gift from god to aussie home brewers. Go Willow!
Hi BG,
I just bought a 20l willow container....i often rack to secondary, but i have just scored a tempmate and a fridge, so I am keen to use this vessel to cold crash...or should I just use the primary?
WOuld it be good for lagering lagers? eg 6 weeks at 4-6degrees???
I am brewing ale at the moment, Little creatures bright ale, will be in primary for about 10 days or 2 weeks, then I was going to xfer to this new 20L willow container and chuck it in the brew fridge to cold crash.
What degrees do you recommend? and for how long? 10 days...is longer not a good idea re:yeast?
PS...I bottle only...so i will need SOME yeast
Also, whats your tips on cleaning the new willow container? Am excited about it....although I cant help shake the feeling that I am putting beer in what looks like a petrol container!!! haha
Sorry for the PM...but I know u have one and can help me
