Plastic Conical FermenterWhile stainless steel is the more usual material used in making conical beer fermenters, there is a large number of vendors and brewers now using the plastic conical fermenter. Usually made of polyethylene, the plastic conical fermenter is generally cheaper, more convenient to use, and easier to clean and sterilize. Expert home brewers, however, contend that using these plastic conical fermenters is only good for certain types of usage. Those who are looking to brew large amounts for long periods should not scoff at the investment in the higher priced stainless steel conical fermenters. But, for those who are just starting out, the plastic conical fermenters are just right.

Using these conical fermenters made of plastic is just the same as using any conical fermenters of any other material. More care, however, should be taken in cleaning the polyethylene material to guard against scratching. When the plastic in these conical fermenters are scratched, it needs to be replaced. Also, beer should not be kept longer than necessary in these plastic containers. These fermenters are also used only as primary fermentation vessels and not as secondary fermentation vessels. Usually, using the plastic conical fermenter made of inert polyethylene do not alter the taste of the beer, home brewers have found that over the long term, the change in the beer taste coming from fermentation in these plastic cylinders become noticeable. Its cost and ease of use, however, are enough to make it a good buy for those who are just looking to try out home brewing. This type of equipment would be a good springboard for an eventual shift to a stainless steel conical fermenter.
