When used with glycol chiller, feels like chiller doesn't have to work as hard, so imagine same effect if using ice bottles, etc...holds ambient temps well too

BEST ANSWER:Hi John, I tried to fit the jacket around one of my 15.5 gallon kegs and it was a bit too small. It needs about another 3-4 inches before the halves will meet. If the gap isn't an issue, you could use elastic straps, but the zipper is a no-go.

Very impressive quality and performance. I'm fermenting 11 gallons at 67F in a 90+ F garage, and the temperature rise averages less than 1F an hour. That's fantastic IMO.
I thought this thing was a little overpriced when I bought it, but after receiving it I must say it's another high value triumph from keg land. It is thick and heavy with reflective insulation inside. It has a zipper for easy on/off and a draw string at the bottom to cinch it up. It perfectly fits the 55l fermzilla and is a good way of blocking light from reaching the fermenter.
Does what it's supposed to. My basement runs about 65 degrees. I taped a seedling mat to the Fermzilla and with the cover it stayed at the set 84 degrees and finished my primary on a 10 gallon batch of Hefeweizen in only 3 days.
25 watt seedling mat was all it took to keep 10 gallons of brew at 84F in a 65F degree basement
