Description

This top value fermenter is made from 304 grade stainless steel and has an integrated (concealed) 36-watt heating element. No need to worry about accessories such as heating belts and external temperature controllers. This stainless steel fermenter will keep your yeast at optimal temperature making it the ideal option for cold climates. The welding is smooth and the outer body has a sleek brushed stainless finish making it easy to clean and maintain.

The base inside this unit is a dome so it's really easy to clean while the rotating rack arm enables you to drain out every last drop.

This unit comes standard with silicone tubing to transfer from the ball valve to your bottles or cans.

Specifications:

  • Capacity: 35L Brimful
  • Body Material: 304 Stainless steel
  • Outlet Valve Type: Stainless steel, nylon bushings, silicone seal and stainless rotating rack arm.
  • Thread on tap is 1/2"
  • Lid: 304 Stainless steel
  • Display: Digital temperature display
  • Heating: 36 Watt Concealed Element
  • Stopper & airlock included
  • Temperature reads in °F or °C

  • External Dimensions: 28" H x 15" W (including handles)
  • Internal Dimensions: 22" H x 11.75" W

Testing has shown that the Bucket Buddy can heat to 104°F in a room temperature ambient environment without insulation. Adding insulation may increase heating capacity while colder ambient environments may lower heating capacity.

What is the temperature setpoint range?
Drew L on Jun 15, 2022
BEST ANSWER: The digital display will read from 32° to 284° Fahrenheit in 1 to 2 degree increments. Celsius will show from 0° to 140° in 1 degree increments. The inconsistent Fahrenheit increments might have something to do with the conversion from Celsius.
Is it a good idea to use this fermenter for 5 gallon batches? Worried about waaaaaaaaay too much headspace.
Luis G Soler Llavina on Feb 21, 2024
BEST ANSWER: Don't worry about to much headtspace. The rule of thumb is twice the volume of the batch you are shooting for. So 5 gallons is 10 gallon fermentor. I have two 17.3 and 1 of the 9 ish gallons and will probably get another.
Will a tilt be able to broadcast through this? It works great with the fermzilla, not sure if the WIFI signal will transmit through steel

BEST ANSWER: It will work but you'll need the receiving device (phone, tablet, raspberry pi, etc) to be very close to the tilt. I have to put my RPi on top of my Spike Flex or it won't connect.
Is there a false bottom that fits this unit?
Dori Arazi on Jan 4, 2024
BEST ANSWER: The bottom of the fermenter is like a bowl, and you can position the racking arm to be as high as you want. Never heard of a false bottom in a fermenter!
Can you add the Brewzilla extension and ferment 10+ gallons of wort in this?
John Jackson II on Feb 27, 2023
BEST ANSWER: I'm the one that asked this question, but I tried because I didn't have larger fermenter available and needed to put 11+ gallons of wort in a fermenter an this one plus an extension was available. It worked, but I had issues in getting the beer out and into kegs. My issue was I clogged up the valve with trub, and had to siphon out the beer into kegs. I had not planned or prepared for this. I tried to push CO2 through the valve which started a small leak at the seal so don't do that. Itried turning the valve to maybe clear it or the tube inside. Apparently this loosened the valve so it had a small now too. I would suggest if you do this be prepared to siphon the beer just in case into your kegs. Again, it works but be prepared for the clogging problem to use a siphon.
What is the size of the bung for the airlock? Original one broke
Bryn on Dec 9, 2022
BEST ANSWER: I used my micrometer to measure the orginal stopper with hole that came with my fermenter. It is a number 3 stopper with hole and that hole is 3/8 for the airlock.
The rack arm doesn't seal properly and falls out. Any suggestions?
JEROME L on Apr 28, 2022
BEST ANSWER: Make sure the washer is on the inside of the kettle. Also make sure the nut is not cross threaded and is sitting flush against the fermenter wall.

Doesn't hold well set temperature
I purchased this Bucket Buddy thinking it would solve my issue of brewing during winter time in my basement. I set the temperature at 71F but it kept jumping from 66 to 71. It doesn't have the option to set the temp differential when it should start heating up. I think my plastic bucket and heat tape with Inkbird would give me a better temp control than BucketBuddy. Also, it would cost less than a BucketBuddy.

Heated Bucket Buddy Rocks!
In my 50 degree garage I can ferment at any temp I need, plus Brewzilla 3.1.1 neopreme blanket fits this perfectly.

I modified the lid of mine to add 1.5 triclamp, and do oxygen free transfers.

It's great!

Great fermenter even in colder conditions
It would be nice if it came with a thermowell for monitoring rather than that being sold separately. The heater maintains temperature well in a sub-60F room. So far, so good.

Works good
I got two of these on sale, I have to say they work good controls are easy and comes with everything you need. There are some things I would change but for the price it's hard to complain. One more thing they will heat a mash to temperature.......would I recommend these and I have to say yes they make things easier when it gets cold temperature stays where you need it the jacket is a must......to all be well

Carefree Fermenting!
The Bucket Buddy fermentor works exactly as I hoped. I used to use a heating pad/strip taped to my glass carboy then wrapped with silver bubble insulation. It worked but was a hassle every time. Now I just set the temp and walk away, easy! I use my BrewZilla neoprene jacket as insulation to assist the temp controller. Cleaning is by far the best advantage of getting away from glass and plastic. Cleaning this fermentor is quick and simple. I plan to drill extra holes in the lid to add my temp twister cooling coil for brewing lagers. No more lifting heavy carboys into my fridge. Just want to mention the first Bucket Buddy I ordered arrived dented. MoreBeeer took care of me super fast. Three days later I had a new replacement. Great customer service!!

Needs a book of instructions
The unit is easy to assemble but it would be nice to have guidance on setting temp etc. I figured it out and the product
works fine.
