Im in the process of building small 4BBL micro brewery and tap room. Originally planned on having 4 FV's/Uni's and 2 BBT's. I'm now wondering what the benefit of the BBT's would be. We would be paying the same amount either way, both would have the same pressure rating and be jacketed for glycol. The only real difference would be the shape, i.e. conical uni, not so conical bright.
I realise a lot of people in a similar situation, brew pubs etc would use bright for serving, but our projections don't really warrant having tanks for service, so the mane use would be for storage to free up room in the walk in fridge.
The beer would be going into kegs and bottles, and I know a lot of people will say you want a BBT for filling kegs from, but if it's rated the same as the uni I don't any reason not to go straight to keg from uni.
Basically as you can tell I'm pretty set on 6 uni's and forgo the brights, but I'm wondering if I'm missing something.
Thanks in advance
