Needed a bit of fettling, but works well and will probably last forever.
My wife bought this as a Christmas present for me, I had added it to a wish list and to be honest didn't spend too much time researching it, she just asked me for some ideas and I fancied trying brewing some beer and thought stainless steel would be better than a plastic bucket.When I prepared to brew, I checked the Kitgarn over, there were a few blemishes to the welds but nothing I couldn't handle, the whole thing needed a good clean to get manufacturing type oils and dirt fully removed, after all this needs to be fully sanitised so any engineering type oils needed to be completely eradicated, this was quite a job, but was completed soon enough. The seal around the tap work well, but the thread on the valve spout needs some PTFE to fully seal it, but thats to be expected of any substantial metal thread where liquids are involved.As you can see from the pictures, I brewed a stout using the Kitgarn and other brewing equipment (Mash Tun etc), all in all the Kitgarn did a great job, nothing much beter than you could get form a plastic bucket, but this will last forever, it's really built that well, whereas plastic buckets will need replacing over time. I particularly like the conical base, this could help a lot if you want to recultivate your yeasts as it is caught nicely in the cone just below the output.The lid has such good clamps and seals that there is no possibility of it being removed unintentionally or knocked off.I gave it only 4 stars because it did need some TLC to get it brew ready, that might be a little unfair as you can't expect something like this for the price to be spotless, the legs are simply exposed steel so could easily scratch surfaces and there are a few sharpo edges, but nothing I would describe as faulty, just where the steel has been cut, a bit of a sanding with some emery cloth will remedy that.Overall, I'm happy with the Fermenter, it feels a little overkill, then again it will be used over and over again and if I ever hang up my beer brewing boots, I think I could probably sell it again for not much less than its price on here.
