Description

The future is here today, and the future is HDPE Fermentation & Storage Tanks from Speidel.

I have used several Speidel fermenters, and when I decided to ferment 10 gallon batches I opted for this style which had a similar lid to my 30 liter units, rather than the large top 60 liter unit.

What is the differnce between this and the 60 liter fermenter?
Louis Volpintesta Jr on May 3, 2019
BEST ANSWER: This is a storage container, you can do your ml fermentation in it but I would not do your initial fermentation in it because you can not do a good punch down. Hope this helps
Why choose this over the FE730?
Jonathan Harmon on Aug 3, 2021
Speidel Plastic Storage - 60 l (15.9 gal)
Speidel Plastic Storage - 60 l (15.9 gal)
Speidel Plastic Fermenter - 60L (15.9 gal)
Speidel Plastic Fermenter - 60L (15.9 gal)
BEST ANSWER: I have used both, but prefer the FE730 over the FE720, because I don't use them for fermentation, only for short term storage (i.e. Time to remove wine from an oak barrel but not ready to bottle). I have friends that use the FE720 for red wine fermentation and for post fermentation maceration and that works better for them due to the wide open top. Bottom line is the FE720 with the wide open top is better for fermentation and the FE730 with the smaller screw on top is better for storage.
Why choose this over the FE720?

Speidel Plastic Storage - 60 l (15.9 gal)
Speidel Plastic Fermenter - 60L (15.9 gal)
Speidel Plastic Fermenter - 60L (15.9 gal)
BEST ANSWER: There are several reasons to choose this one. For one, the lid is way, WAY easier to install/remove. It's easier to clean the lid as well. It's a little more narrow so fits better on a shelf if you have several lined up. Some people prefer these for aging after primary fermentation.
How well does this work as a primary fermenter?
Jonathan Harmon on Aug 3, 2021
BEST ANSWER: GREAT!! I have (2) 60l's for primaries and (4) 30l"s for secondaries. Done with glass!! Easy to clean! Easy to pitch and harvest yeast!
During the winter we brew twice a week, 11 gallon batches. We brew to fill and keep 30.kegs full till we put put our boats in the water in mid April. So we brew from the end of October to the first of April. So we brew right around 250 gallon. All in Speidel!! Love them and use them hard!!
if I want to store wine but cant fill it all the way, what should I do?
Mark A Coenen on Sep 16, 2019
BEST ANSWER: While CO2 can work for blanketing some head space, Nitrogen or Argon is more ideal gas. CO2 can dissolve into the wine which would cause it to carbonate which is why we recommend Nitrogen or Argon. As mentioned, glass marbles will also do the trick of displacing the volume to reduce the head space.
Can someone please confirm the exterior dimensions as 22"L x 16"W x 22" H for this 60 L rectangular version? It seems this works out to be much larger than 60 L. I've got limited space and need to know the exact measurements before purchasing.
Derick Weis on May 29, 2018
BEST ANSWER: Dimensions as pictured in question:
22”L includes spigot
27”H includes airlock installed
15” W handle to handle
Great fermenter - extra space, easy to clean, strong and well-made
hi, the 60 liters of the fermenter is to the top of the fermenter or (literally all the way to the top of the lid) or is there an additional space?
Geovanna Racines on Jun 18, 2021
BEST ANSWER: I'm sure the stated capacity (60 liters in this case) is not to the top of the lid. I think it's to the bottom of the "lip" (the part at the top of the tank that the lid screws down on). So there will be a very small amount of headspace even wen the tank contains the 60 liters. I think.

Awesome!
Super solid and sturdy.
I dont like the airlock, i prefer the S shaped one.
You can get a fitting for it separately.

-1 star since on this model the ring screws on top of the lid seems to be a bit larder diameter so the fit with the lid is not snug.

Great Fermenter
This is my 3rd Speidel fermenter and i absolutely love them. I had the round 60L and then purchased the new style 30L. I loved the large screw off lid so much I bought the new 60L to replace my old one with the huge clamp on lid. They are all fantastic though. Very heavy duty and very easy to clean.

Lightweight and Non-Breakable
Excellent storage and fermentation container. Perfect for MLF before moving to oak barrels for aging or just add oak cubes/staves to this container during aging. Easy to work with and clean. Lightweight with large opening for fast cleaning and sterilization.

The spout does not seal off completely so a small drip develops every couple of days.

Just right size with big improvements
I have barrel, flextanks and spiedels. This is the best overall design; twist on cap and shape lends itself for cleaning and storing wine.

Love it. But plastic spout leaks; so I just fixed this issue by purchasing a new solid cap and drilling it out and adding a brew tech stainless steel.
