I remember seeing those fermentation tubes at the VLB! They have a pretty amazing pilot brewery there too. Don’t remember the volume but it might have been around 100L?

Because we non-LODO homebrewers don't produce pro-quality beer? Are we that bad? Thank you for showing us the way, lupulus. I had no idea how amateurish my beers were until this post.

Have a great day!

  • Great beer. Less work. More fun.
Brewing scientists have been designing systems for well over 100 years. Do you think they were all rubes groping in the dark?

All of this notwithstanding, may I suggest that you re-visit the phrasing of your question? Are you the arbiter of "professional quality" when it comes to beer?

Edit: your point #1 applies to you, too
