Spike Brewing

I am giving away my carboys and plastic fermenters. My CF-5 rocks !. The temp control coil accessory I picked up along with the unit allows me to maintain precise 1 degree temperature control during fermentations and the CIP tri-clamp attachment makes cleaning and sanitizing a breeze. I like being able to pressurize during and after cold crashing to prevent oxygen suck back when starting transfers. A little tippy towards the front when full and all the valves and other included attachments are in place, but I quickly solved that by mounting the unit to a low profile and very stable rolling platform so I can still fill it by gravity feed from the kettle on my brew sculpture, then roll it right into my fermentation chamber, attach the heating/cooling lines and blowoff, then "set it and forget it" . Also very important is that there are no more fermentations taking place in the shower stall, which makes the wife happy....which in turn makes me happy. Win-win. One defective pressure gauge which arrived with my system package was immediately replaced by the Spike customer support staff, so they stand solidly behind their product line. I only wish I wouldn't have waited so long to pull the trigger on this unit, now that I have used it repeatedly, I can never go back. Kudos to Spike for a well made ( in the USA ) and well supported product.

Unbelievable quality. I use my flex for secondary / as a bright tank (under pressure, 10psi), and it works excellent.

Love everything Spike makes. Hope to buy more.
