Another benefit of plastic

[Triple Freak]

I wouldn't use another spigot bucket if you paid me to. I ruined one batch by contamination, and another from leakage. I use a regular bucket for fermenting & glass carboys for secondarys.

I have to agree with that leakage thing. The first time I decided to ferment in a bucket because of the weight issue, the spigot leaked all over the place. I plan on trying a plain bucket one of these days.

My first bucket is running on 6 years old. Scratches and all it still makes fine beer. I just brewed a Rauchbier yesterday and it's fermenting away nicely.
