Stainless steel quarter and half barrels. Won't break like glass, don't allow any sunlight, can be bunged, and allow for fermenter to keg transfers without any oxygen pick up. Cheaper than conicals. Yeast harvesting is as simple as dumping yeast into jar. Cut the bottom inch or so off the spear for clear transfers. Boil a couple gallons in keg to sanitize before filling.
Been using Sankeys for a couple years now and think they're great. Love that I can boil them prior to filling to sterilize - get steam ripping out then dump that fucker over a bucket and let all the boiling water drain out. Turn it rightside up when you're ready to run out the kettle
