I’m gonna get myself a 15 gallon flextank, but they sell two versions. , “maturation” and a “heavy” version…which one should I buy? I cannot seem to find any info on the two
 
I have a couple of them that I use for fermentation and EM. I also have a couple 20L barrels and am now looking for something that I can age wine for Micro Oxidation benefits in a larger size format (don’t think Speidels do that do they?). I was going to go with a 40L barrel, but The 15 gal Flextank seemed like a good option and would limit the evaporation I get from the barrels. And perhaps be easier to clean than a 40L barrel.
 
Maturation is generally for red wine or tannic reds, heavy weight is for white wine or low tannin light reds.
