My wife and I are starting a mead company on a very tight budget. So when I started looking at moving up to the commercial (but still smaller than the big guys) size equipment, I got a bit of sticker shock.
My requirements were:
1. I needed a capacity of at least 15 gallons (I use 1/2 barrel beer kegs as a pot to pasteurize my honey) and no more than 30 gallons.
2. It had to be cheep.
3. It must be food grade and compatible with honey wine.
After much research, I found some plastic conical tanks from a manufacturer online. Last night, I took the plunge and ordered two 30 gallon tanks, and all the fittings. They should arrive within a week. I'll update this post with the details of the project as it progresses.
