I purchased this in a kit from Morebeer. My issue is the pump came defective. When I went to SSBrewtech site and did some research this is a well known issue so buyer beware. Will update once I get the replacement from Morebeer through warranty but it does leave a bad taste about this system.

A word of warning: The mini Brew Bucket has recently been updated to provide handles and an attached base. However the FTSs provided by Morebeer includes a neoprene jacket that does not have holes for the handles or base. I purchased both the Brew Bucket Mini and this FTSs as part of the same order in Aug. 2020. I contacted SS Brewtech and they informed me that there is an updated jacket but Morebeer says that they do not yet have it.

Using this for the first time with the 3.5G Brew Bucket. Working great. Temp set for 68º. Kicks in when temp gets to 1º over. Just a note have a fair amount of headspace and using 3 piece airlock sanitizer gets sucked in when temp drops. Changed to S Airlock and that seems better.

I have to travel for work so I can't have a typical fermentation chamber set up. This works great for temp control and kept it stable through the ferment within 1 degrees above or below the set temp. Great alternative for temp control.
