as a mega homebrewing noob, the fermzilla has been a game changer in ease of brewing for me. Regardless of the Pressure fermenting benefits, the bottling and serving benefits alone is worth it. No racking cane, no secondary vessel, just ferment, chill, and bottle/serve

My keg fermenter of choice is a 1/4 barrel slim sanke keg.  It has a 7.75 g capacity and is perfect for 5 or even 6g batch sizes with no worries of blow offs.  Also fits perfectly in a standard size wine fridge for temperature control.

15 psi, a flush cut gas tube and 1 drop of fermcap you can fill to the top weld line on a 19L <1.065 . I shortened 1 tube before seeing how fast the beer clears on a floating tube. Some toys are totally worth it!

Been using 6 gallon keg to ferment, connected to a 5 gallon keg loaded already with dry hop eddition in a hop filter connected to the lid, then i have the the spunding walve on the 5 gallon.  The 5 gallon keg are now free from oxygen and only to change the connection from gas port to the serving lid on the 6 gallon to transfer the beer and get it dryhopped, small amounts of co2 to transfer the last amount of beer and done.

The Clawhammer Kegmenter is great for making Mangrove Jack's Cider kits.

Love the look of the clawhammer keg, just gutted it doesn't have a conical bottom so you could drop the cone,  Would be ideal for fermenting an serving  then

I ferment and serve in a keg as well. I think the only thing missed in this was to use Fermcap S to help with the headspace issue. I haven't had a single blowoff issue since adding in a few drops with the yeast.

Claw hammer commercial?  Looks very expensive.  A gift for someone who has everything?

Always love how this channel is so informative. I wish I could get claw hammer products here in the UK as it looks like proper quality and I see it in US videos all the time. I’m a MASSIVE fan of claw hammer’s channel as I am yours. Another great informative entertaining video cheers 🍻👍

I've looked into this and for dry hopping, people put the hops in a bag under the lid with a magnet and then put a magnet on the outside of the lid so the magnets attract each other holding the hop bag against the lid.  Then when its time to dry hop you remove the magnet from the outside and now the inside magnet has nothing to hold on to and the hop bag falls into the beer. I guess that will work if the lid isn't magnetic, lol, have not tried it yet.

After doing some tests in 5-gallon kegs I bought a 6.5 Gallon keg they had on Amazon and added a Float-it 2.0 floating dip tube. I use a blowoff on the gas tube without any problems over several batches. It's perfect for 5-gallon batches. I switch to a spunding valve usually "just off the peg" on the gage. I may try a pressure ferment in the future. Thinking of getting a 2nd, because I like to do parti-gyle, a full 5-gallon batch needs some headspace so the 2nd beer ends up in a carboy. If I cut back to a 4-gallon 2nd beer I have an 5-gallon keg with a Float-it.

Love shiny new gear, and as always, love Bru's informative vids. For my tiny budget, I had to come up with a cheaper solution. I got a fermzilla on sale with everything needed for regular and pressure fermenting, and a used keg with carb lid and carb stone. The floating dip tube (FDT) in the fermenter does a decent job in controlling the amount of trub that gets transferred to the keg (closed transfer). The FDT in the keg keeps all but the last pour as clear as the first pour. My keg set up has a FDT connected to the out post and the carb stone is on another tube that goes about halfway down and stays well off of the trub. I've not had any issues with tubes getting tangled or the carb stone kicking up a haze, since there's not much to kick up. Dry hopping is a breeze in the fermzilla with a couple of food grade magnets. Total was about $250. I really like being able to get my arm inside the fermenter to clean and not have to worry about getting trub out of a metal keg pickup tube. I spent the good money on a 10 gallon CH kettle, which is a great piece of gear that I've also used for small batch pasteurizing and steaming rice for Sake.

I've been doing full 5 gallon batches in a 5 gallon corney keg with a floating dip tube for the past year. The only time i have any issues is with Kviek yeast that starts pretty aggressive. I use Cellular Science Foam Axe to reduce krausen and the only time I need a blow off tube on the end of my spunding valve is when using Kviek. Normal US-05, S-04, ect., no issues. no stuck posts. Fill them kegs kings.

Great Channel Mate !!

I love fermenting in kegs! Less cleaning, transfers and if you rack your wort onto a recently finished keg's slurry healthier yeast. What's not to love?

Add to that 34/70 at 20C and a bit of pressure and you can do a Pils in 10 days (ale in 7)!

I was happy with my all rounder until now.

Since I bought my first kegs, my bucket fermenters have seen no action at all.

this is a nice and shiny answer to a question nobody was asking. fantastic. Are those two handles fixed in place? Would be a lot cooler if they fold down.

I've been doing 3 gallon batches in plain corny kegs for a few years now. I like the smaller batch size, and convenience of usually not transferring (I do closed transfers for highly hopped, or adjunct beers though). Makes for a lot less hassle! I usually start with a blowoff attached to the gas input, then attach a SPUNDit after a few days. I use the Flot-it dip tubes. If I still needed 5-gallon batches, I'd definitely look into the Clawhammer Keg.

I totally agree.. One vessel brewing is great.  I find the crusty krausen stuck to the top/sides is what fouls the clarity the most if bumped or moved. I find that post fermentation, a modest shake to "wash" off krausen so it can settle with the rest of the yeast.
After a week or two, With a floating dip tube the beer is nice and clear.  Just don't toss the keg in the car to head to a BBQ.
I successfully installed a keg post with ball lock liquid connect on a corny keg lid. This allows the floating dip tube to be added or removed as easy as swapping a keg lid.  I do it this way since it's really hard to get the silicone dip tube installed onto a fixed short post connection inside the keg if you have big clumsy hands.
A bonus to fermenting and serving in the same vessel is you get the characteristics of bottle conditioned but in a keg.
