you will find that exact cube.7 gallon Aquatainer at Wally world, look in the camping department.scottvin wrote:Hi Lylo, I am in Long Island, NY... do you have a link for the walmart cube? thanks!
Let us know how that works out Bob. I just did the same thing (6 gallon winpac for both NC and then fermenter) and it blew krausen all over the inside of my fermenting fridge! There just wasn't enough headspace with 5.75 gallons of wort in a 6 gallon container (imagine that....duh) and I am leery about using fermcap or any other chemicals.BobBrews wrote:Here is a link to what I use. http://www.usplastic.com/catalog/item.a ... d=redirect These are good to 250 degrees F. I bought extra caps to put a airlock in to use as a fermenter or no chill cube Err! a no chill tube??
I have a regular cube that I use for 90% of the time. I bought a expensive one when I started but I bought two of these with extra caps for less than the cube!
I have used (for the first time) The Winpac for a no chill AND fermented in the same container! It's still in the (no/chill - primary) wish me luck??
I suppose I could get extra caps for the winpacs and rig a custom blow-off setup but quite honestly I'm a voyeur so I really enjoy watching the yeasties do their magic in my Better Bottles.
Do what works for you! I use fermcap and love it! It is almost always in my boil to eliminate my constant boilovers. I forget to turn it down! I use a little in my fermenting buckets. Not one blow off since starting with it. Fermcap drops out of suspension with the trub so I don't worry about it. Its looks like Elmer's glue or maybe sap from a rubber tree! Anyway it doesn't seem to effect me except for the impotence and memory problems! I think?and I am leery about using fermcap or any other chemicals.
