Manufactured by Speidel — one of Europe's most trusted names in food-grade tank production — this 45-litre barrel is built to last a lifetime and performs equally well as a primary fermenter, secondary vessel, bright beer tank, or long-term storage container.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eWhat sets the Speidel UF apart from plastic fermenters and entry-level stainless alternatives is its uncompromising build quality. The food-grade stainless steel construction is completely non-porous, flavour-neutral, and impervious to scratching — eliminating the hidden bacteria harbours and flavour carry-over that plague plastic fermenters after extended use. The universal design accommodates a wide range of fittings, accessories, and configurations, making it a genuinely flexible centrepiece for any serious homebrew setup. Speidel's characteristically precise German engineering is evident in every weld, seal, and fitting — this is a vessel you buy once.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eAt 45 litres, the Speidel UF is ideally sized for 30–40 litre homebrew batches, with enough headspace for active fermentation without blowoff risk. Whether you're fermenting a lager, conditioning a barrel-aged stout, or storing finished beer ahead of packaging, this vessel handles every stage of the process with quiet confidence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e⸻\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eFood-grade stainless steel — non-porous, flavour-neutral, scratch-resistant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eUniversal design — suitable for fermentation, conditioning, and storage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eBuilt to accept standard homebrew fittings and accessories\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eLifetime durability — a permanent addition to any brewing setup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003eEasy to clean and sanitise — fully CIP compatible\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003ePrecision German engineering by Speidel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e⸻\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eUsage\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eBest suited for: Primary fermentation, secondary conditioning, bright beer tank, long-term storage, lager conditioning, cold crashing\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eCompatible with: Standard airlocks, thermometers, racking arms, tri-clamp and threaded fittings, CIP cleaning systems\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003e⸻\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eQuick facts\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-pre-wrap leading-[1.7]\"\u003eBrand: Speidel Model: Universal Fermentation Barrel UF Capacity: 45 litres Material: Food-grade stainless steel Origin: Germany Use: Fermentation, conditioning, storage\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CraftBrew","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57094621790583,"sku":"UF-035 Var 0001","price":269.2,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0932\/6578\/9303\/files\/universalfass-45-liter.jpg?v=1778836088","url":"https:\/\/craftbrew.nl\/products\/speidel-stainless-steel-universal-fermentation-storage-barrel-uf-45l","provider":"CraftBrew","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
