I’m new to all this wonderful stuff and maybe it’s something I’m not doing right but has anyone else had issues with the orings that come with their fermenator cracking up?
Second time cleaning thing up I noticed one of the orings on the spunding valve starting to crack. Now on this last batch while trying to transfer to the keg the racking valve was leaking badly at the stem only to find out the oring for that is absolutely pootched.
I use pbw to wash and sanitize with star San. Nothing has been left for any excessive amount of time in contact with either one so I’m hoping it’s just some bad orings and not something I’m doing?! I don’t know
