This starter kit adds a pressure lid with floating dip tube and a collection container, so it suits brewers who want to pressure ferment and clean hard without worrying about scratching plastic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eType\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConical pressure fermenter (Conical Kegmenter)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eVolume\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e60L\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMaterial\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e304 stainless steel, roughly 1.8 to 2.14mm thick, commercial keg finish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDimensions\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1060mm high, 405mm diameter\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCone and outlet\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e90 degree cone with 3 inch TC dump valve\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eLid\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePressure lid with floating dip tube, yellow and red carb caps and a 45psi green PRV\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCollection container\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e600mL with a 25psi red PRV\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eStand\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTriple suspension rubberised stand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow it works\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Vulcan sits between a standard Kegmenter and a premium conical. The steel is finished to the same standard as a 50L commercial keg rather than polished to a mirror, which makes it tough enough for heat and strong commercial cleaning chemicals; you can even boil in it. The floating dip tube draws clear beer from near the surface, and the 3 inch dump valve clears trub from the bottom of the cone. The Vulcan has a clean outer skin with no extra side ports, so there is less to clean. It is sized to fit a full size RAPT fermentation chamber.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eOptions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpunding valve:\u003c\/strong\u003e none, a Compact BlowTie spunding valve or a Large Dial BlowTie spunding valve.
