I gave this one star in another review because the bottom was not flat, but I should have waited until I reached out to MoreBeer. They said these are supposed to be flat and are sending my a new one. I tried to edit or delete my other review, but there's not an option to do this.I appreciate MoreBeer's customer service!
Very well packed and the bottom is completely flat.
Good price, Product as describes good quality
Not much to say. It’s a nice big flask. For high gravity beers where you’ll want 2L of starter, this is a nice option because you can boil your wort right on the stove top in the flask and then stir by hand or put on a stir plate after it cools.
Perfect size to make a 2L starter
The flask does not have a flat bottom, which can be an issue with the stir bar sliding off. On a simple water test, the stir bar stayed in place; however, I have yet to try it with a starter.On a more positive note, the flask arrived well packaged and in good condition.
Works great. As advertised.
Good quality thick glass which should hold up overtime. Let’s me do bigger starters.
The 3000ml flasks that are currently being shipped have a concave (not flat) bottom. If you intend to use a stir plate, this is not the flask for you. Otherwise, the flask I received is sturdy and without defects. Mike from Customer Service was professional and assisted me with the return.
Perfect size for doing a starter. Gives more flexibility with the size of the starter needed!
I used this to make a 2.4L starter and still had plenty of headroom. Note that a #10 stopper fits well, not a 10.5 as suggested in the Q&A section.
Works great for 2L starters lots of head room
The flask is ok but I really wanted one with a larger neck sthat would take a # 10 stopper
This is the best size for 10 and 12 gallon batch starters
Good price and it is an excellent size for two stage starters.
I just unpacked and cleaned 2 of these. They are very high quality thick walled flasks. I will put them to the test!
Does is come with a foam stopper?
No it does not come with a foam stopper.
No stopper just the flask.
No it does not come with a stopper.
It does not come with a foam stopper. I sanitize a piece of aluminum foil and loosely fit it over the mouth of the flask. This method has always worked for me.
No
Not when I purchased mine
It does not come with any stopper but it is a great flask. Highly recommended. I also purchased the 5000 ml at the same time and wished I’d bought 2 of the 3000 ml for doing back to back yeast batches.
Mine did not but a piece of tin foil sprayed with StarSan works great!
No you have to order the stopper separate.
No. I’ve tried them before. Seems like a nice idea but sanitized foil is much easier to deal with.
What high of the flask?
It is approximately 13 inches tall
12-1/4 - 12-1/2" high
The flask is approximately 12.5 inches (31 cm) tall.
the 3000ML is 12 and 1/4 inches high. Great flask!
14-16 inches in that range is my guess. Not at the brewery at the moment.
High as "pho"
What size stopper fits this flask?
#10.5 is too big for this flask - I bought one and it didn't fit. a #10 fits just right.
A #10.5 Stopper should fit Y440 well.
Sorry I use aluminum foil to cover my starters.
Is the bottom flat? The one i have from elsewhere doesn't and it is useless on my stir plate.
Mine was not flat but I reached out to MoreBeer and they're sending a replacement. Great customer service!
Yes the bottom is flat and this will be great for making a yeast starter.
