2020 may be the year of the homebrewer! What you do think of my decision to move to the Spike Conical fermenter?

Great job! I just bought a CF5 and setup it up. I got it with the manifold as well and cooling coil. I am very excited about the next posts to really see how to maximize my investment. I brew Kolsch 6 times a year and 6 other brews that interest me. Cleaning it was a breeze. I will pump directly from kettle into fermenter and use the cooling coil to cool wort to yeast temp. My kettle has the spike steam hat to keep moisture down while I brew inside. Getting everything dialed in has been a challenge dealing with losses in tubing, values, pumps etc. I am pumped to see the next posts,

This is my decision 2022 between a CF5 or CF10. I mostly do 5-6 gallon batches of beer but sometimes i'll do a 10-12 gallon batches. Im just concerned about the amount of headspace on a 5 gallon batch in the CF10 would negatively affect the beer. I cant seem to figure out if pressure brewing would mitigate any negative effects of large headspace or even if if the headspace issue is not to be concerned about. So many questions....

Really great video, you covered everything I was thinking about. Still can’t make the decision between Spike and SS

Hey Ryan, nice intro to some of the Spike product line. In short, I am planning on opening a small (nano) scale brewery as an extension of my homebrewing hobby (as if we haven't heard that story before). Anyway, I just ordered my first Spike system as well (a 5 gal. Flex). It looks like I am about 6 or 7 months behind you but I think we're pretty much on the same path? Please keep these videos coming and maybe we can collaborate in the future. Cheers!

That looks bad ass man. I know you’re excited. Very clean, studio too. Did I miss you say what’s the first style or batch to be made. Recommend beer for Sunday?
