    This might sound crazy! Possible fastferment permanent fix

    Or something like this? The only issue I can think of is the rubber holding in bad bacteria but then again, bungs and stoppers are rubber as well https://www.fernco.com/plumbing/residential-plumbing/qwik-caps

    This might sound crazy! Possible fastferment permanent fix

    Ok, as we all know the fastferment is the cheapest conical out there. Being cheap it has downsides. I'm luck since I haven't had major issues. The only thing I still don't trust is the lid. It seems to seal properly but I don't trust it. I may have a solution but need some opinions. I was...

    Robobrew Question?

    I just picked up the Robobrew with pump. I have some concerns about water calculations. I have read that the grain father calculator seems to be pretty spot on. According to the grain father calculator, a 5.5 gallon batch with 13 pounds of grain and a 60 minute boil, should put me at a 5.13...
