The 3 Gallon FastFerment is your all-in-one fermentation solution.
The FastFerment conical fermenter eliminates 80% of sanitizing and cleaning with this affordable all-in-one fermenter. Conduct all stages of fermentation in this single vessel. Remove the trub from the bottom of the fermenter instead of transferring all your liquid to secondary.
No siphons, no secondary fermenting vessel to sanitize, no extra bungs and airlocks.
FastFerment produces dramatically better results. Start each batch by letting debris settle out into the collection ball before pitching your yeast! Remove the debris, and pitch into ultra-clear wort. Plus, FastFerment minimizes the risk of oxidation and contamination by eliminating the need to transfer to a second vessel, preventing off-flavors and infection. Keep your batch safe from external spoiling factors by keeping it in one place.
Perfect for making beer, wine, or cider.
Total Capacity 3 US Gallons - Made for 1-2 Gallon batches with blow offs.
Just when you thought it couldn’t get any more low maintenance, FastFerment has a wide mouth lid for effortless, hands-on cleaning. Plus, you can easily add or remove dry hops or flavor additions during secondary fermentation.
It's not just for beer. FastFerment is also perfectly suited for homemade wine or cider!
Each FastFerment Includes:
One 3 US Gallon HDPE Conical Fermenter
6" (15cm) Screw Top, Grommet & Airlock
Bottom Collection Mason Jar For Harvesting Yeast
3/4" Teflon Seated Union Valve
3/8" - 1' Hose with clamp and barb
Metal Stand for the Fermenter
Optional Thermometer available for direct monitoring of fermentation temperature.
Two 2 gallon kits so far. The ball valve is very poor. It will not open and close properly. I have adjusted it to turn easier but it continues to fail. I will cap it off and use without the ball valve.
The fermenter itself is very nice.
A butterfly valve would solve the problem.

Great service from Midwest. My only concern is the carboy is near the top and I still have to add the flavor to the wine and I dont think its going to fit. I may have to put this into my other carboy before bottling. Making three gallons.

A good fermenter
This is a good fermenter. You can test the progress of your wort or must without giving it oxygen. The only down side is it has many parts on the spigot and you have to use silicon tape to seal it. A better and easier spigot system would help.

I used it once with a 1 gallon beer kit. Advise to read all the instructions as you do not to Teflon tape around 12 times or it will leak , and make sure you leak test it as it does require it to be tight enough. My batch did not start fermenting so I think I did wrong by not closing the valve. Other wise it was easy enough to use and clean. Also I recommend using rubber gloves it makes it easier to get the top lid off when it tight, otherwise it’s too slippery to get a grip on. So better luck for me next time. I will try the beer kits again until it’s fruit harvest time. Then production turns to wine.

Fastferment 3 gallon
The fastferment is great so far. Installed the thermowell for the thermostat and have a minor leak during the leak test, but that is what the leak test is for. Resealed and now about to finish the first ferment on a pinot noir kit. Excited and hope everything goes well. Great product so far.
