Hello everyone,
I'm new to this forum, but I've done a reasonable amount of brewing over the years. I've generally used kits from home brew shops, sometimes adding extra unusual things to add flavour. For example I made an ale with nettles and another with elderflower.
I've made wines a couple of times too. I made one out of elderberry, and I don't know if anyone remembers the Esther Ranzen from Bottom (going back a bit with my cultural references sorry), well that wine had he same effect.
My dad has always been into brewing as well. He talks about friends of his making home brew in their bathtub at uni. Have any of you heard of any unusual containers to use as FVs?
I think I'm going to have to replace my barrel. Can anyone think of a problem with using a plastic storage box as a FV, or should I buy a proper one?
Thanks for the input.
