I had always thought dropping hundreds of dollars on brewing equipment was never going to happen for me....then this bad boy came along. After saving my pennies for a few months I bought this an haven't looked back! I have also come to realize that the fermentation is the most important part of making good beer. So when I was between upgrading my brewstand or fermentation it was an obvious choice.

What is great about it: first off..it looks amazing. Next, the tri-clamp fittings make cleaning a breeze and hold an excellent seal. The cooling coil works so well, I hold about a 1.5 degree variance during even the most active fermentation in GA. I built my own cooling and heating set up to save some $$, but with this tank it works great...diacetyl rest is easy, cold crashing is easy..everything is easy in terms of temperature control. Sampling is a breeze with the valve, yeast dumping is a breeze. Yeast stuck during dump? no problem, throw a couple PSI on and push it right out. The ability to pressure transfer to the kegs is one of my favorite features (though you have to buy a few more parts). Overall, I feel my fermentation process is much more streamlined and clean. The only thing I haven't done is carbonate in the vessel. I do use the carbonation stone for pure oxygen aeration and it works very well.

What I did/do not like about the vessel: I think for a thousand dollars this thing should come cleaned and basically ready for a wash with some PBW and starsan. I had to spend about 4 hours hand cleaning the oils and nasties off from production with TSP cleaner. Was not super happy about that.
It should already come with casters on the bottom. I don't know why they expect people to pay for those. I got mine on amazon for half the price. Fully filled, this vessel is very heavy...strongly recommend casters.

Overall very happy with the unitank and would get another if I had the money and was actually brewing enough to justify it. The beers I have made with this have all turned out excellent.
