It's different to the reviews on the web. The thermowell is now removable and the ball valves are welded to the tri clamp fitting instead of having to screw them on.
Do these changes make it better, do you think?

And yes, I'm definitely going to buy one!

Yes much better. No ugly tape to deal with and the thermowell looks much neater and is removable for easier cleaning.

Go for it, you won't regret it

The SWMBO says 'buy it', yet the homebrewer is dithering??? :shock:

Dude, it's a no-brainer.

Mine's ordered now. Yippee!!

Busy week ahead so I've asked Rob at The Malt Miller to arrange for it to be delivered Monday December 8th.

Thanks everyone for the information and encouragement.

Conical arrived monday so as im self employed i set up a brewday for tuesday 30 mins into boil the
element blew so i ended up splitting the batch and boiled on a smaller boiler .i hope it all comes together
the conical does look nice in the fridge lets hope the brew is succesful as i have no idea on the hop utilisation.
