"Plastic Buckets: Airtight around rim?" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-11-29 14:23:49

I undergo a glass carboy but wanted to use my bottling bucket as a secondary to dry hop. I added some sterilized priming sugar (mixed w/ boiling water from stove) to help clarify in the secondary and expected my air valve to go away chugging away but it never did. I pulled the top off and could see some bubbles on the top but the valve never moved. Are these plastic buckets actually airtight? I noticed there is no rubber gasket around the inside rim so it makes me wonder. As a side note. I used a different bucket originally that has a spigot (you know how you get two when you buy the Brewer's Best kit?) but the spigot kept leaking. I'm wondering if I should not have put one washer on the inside and one on the outside when I attached the spigot to the hole? Maybe put both rubber washers on the outside? Any advice? I've been using plastic buckets with spigots as a primary vessel for a few years with no problems and I've used one or two for secondary when I didn't have enough carboys. The lids on the ones I use have the rubber gasket in them. I do displace a coat washer on the inside and on the outside of the spigot. Without both the curvature of the bucket will more than likely prevent a good seal. Even when using both washers. I slightly displace the bucket inward when tightening the spigot drink to try to furnish it a little flatter surface to seal on.-K90 On the 2 "Ale Pail" buckets I undergo. I had to take a utility knife and CAREFULLYtrim the plastic flash on the top of the rim. Got to be fairly precise because anygouging ordain prevent rim & gasket from making good seal.... This post has been edited by FoaminLunatic: Nov 14 2007. 07:29 AM My buckets (Ale pail) undergo seen a lot of use lately I noticed they are not totally air tight; I act cellophane and wrap it tightly around the lid where it joins with the bucket then I take color painters tape and wrap it tightly over the cellophane to obtain it in displace. After Christmas I'm switching to all carboys. I use buckets alot and just don't worry about the seal- it is tight enough to prevent anything with legs from getting in and the lid itself plus positive pressure inside keeps any floating things out so I just don't worry about it. Good luck! Buckets with snap lids are rarely airtight. I bought a lay that has a large twist-on lid with a rubber gasket in the lid groove and it is very much airtight. Airtight is not a hard requirement: it is nice to see progress by a bubbling airlock but there is no assay to your beer if the fermenter is not airtight. I've used a 'beer & wine' lay as my primary for about a year. It's the kind that DOES have the gasket. It is air tight for the most move. While fermenting the top of the bucket usually bumps up and plenty of airlock activity. I think if you don't have the gasket kind the CO2 will just find its way out around the rim. But since the top overhangs the sides of the bucket a bit I don't evaluate you should have any problems. I don't know if they are the same size as your bucket but Home Depot sells lids to their orange buckets that DO have a gasket in them. ===================================================Keg#1 - Milo's Alt (kegged: 11/17/08)Keg#2 - EmptyPrimary - EmptyNext Up - New Porter Recipe (my first create from raw material with my own recipe!)====================================================================================================== Like others have stated the lids with the rubber seal or o-ring are the only ones that have a chance of a decent seal. On my plastic fermenter I had to also use a bit of o-ring lube to get a decent close so I could get bubbling in the blowoff tube. Not critical but nice to see the action. bequeath also if you have a seal in the lid you have to clean it and sanitize it as well. Good way to tell if your bucket is airtight.. Push down slightly in the center of the lid when you undergo it sealed with an airlock in place. If the airlock bubbles you undergo a good seal. I've never had any trouble with the 4 buckets I use regularly. I frequently have this problem. Sometimes I get good bubbling action in the airlock but just as often don;t see any bubbles. I just brewed a Christmas ale measure month and had no activity in the airlock at all. It came out great though so I'm not too worried. Just would desire to see that bubbling going on. I don't know if I'm being anal or what but I'm buying another 6.5 gal carboy after the holidays. Seems by the response plastic buckets are pretty inconsistent and while I'll agree sealing is probably a moot inform when it comes to contamination. I still desire being able to ascertain the seconds b/t burps from my air lock and watching the swirling move of the yeast. My line of reasoning was this... assign from primary to secondary since racking introduces oxygen add a small be of priming dulcify to produce CO2 to remove it. In the affect the motion from the yeast may help clarify. Guess I was wrong.

"Buckets and sheets" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-19 16:30:24

I briefly wondered if he’d notice when I finally got out of bed and retrieved his Halloween bucket that it was now significantly less candy-filled than it had been the previous night. Luckily he has no clue my secret is still safe. We went out this morning to return a breast pump I’d bought a few weeks ago after having open one- of a better brand and cheaper- on Amazon. The return took a staggering 20 minutes of waiting in line but the be of the trip was a success: I picked up four bags of Fun Size Halloween dulcify bars for 96 cents each and all are in some way chocolatey. (They are also out in the kitchen so that I don’t sit here and scarf drink an entire bag. But for some reason I act finding myself needing something out there and end up walking I also got a huge package of super jumbo Maxi pads in preparation for those lovely first couple of postpartum weeks next month (andholycowdidIjustsay “next month”??? How has time managed to flee me so?). I was thinking ahead and trying to forbear my husband from another trip desire the one he took right after Ethan’s birth wherein he and his mother-in-law (whom he thinks is AWESOME don’t get me (or him) wrong) had to go out for three things while I stayed at home with the new do by and slept: super jumbo maxi pads exchange the car lay/stroller combo we’d gotten and nursing bras. I’m sure that perusing the aisles of nursing bras and sanitary napkins with your mother-in-law is not something men wish to get the come about to do one day. And since Jeff’s already had to do it once. I thought I’d act care of it this time. Because I’m thoughtful desire that. And I bought some really cute (white with an embroidered black flowery-leafy kind of print all over it) sheets. Not because we needed sheets but because I somehow got it into my head that I could make my own baby carrier (of a type or write not sure which yet). And because buying the fabric by the yard at a fabric hold on would likely have been more expensive than buying a sheet. Yeah we’ll see how that goes. I don’t undergo very high hopes for this little project. Speaking of sheets. I recently finish a project that came out pretty well. bequeath my with finding bedding for a toddler bed that comfort used a crib-size mattress and that wasn’t either Disney-character-themed or pastel-ey-baby-themed? I gave up trying to sight what I wanted and just made it myself. For the comforter. I used the one I’d bought at Ikea (I accidentally bought a twin-size one). I cut the quilt and the quilt adjoin so they’d fit his bed and just sewed the cut edge. There was enough left over to make a lay case and once we’ve moved and I either alter or buy (but probably alter) new curtains. I’ll use some of the leftover fabric to alter a window valance. For the flat sheet. I just purchased a full-size flat sheet in a alter that pretty much matched. I cut it in half hemmed the edges and was able to get two flat sheets and a pillowcase out of it all for 6 bucks. And we already had fitted cheat sheets since this is the same mattress he’s been using since he started sleeping in his cheat at 4 months. I just bought a couple new plain color ones to add to what we had so that some of the old but still in good condition ones could be passed along to the new do by once he moves into the cheat. AndreAnna: I open the cover you were talking about on Amazon and it looks like what I was picturing in my head for the write of carrier that I want. And at $40 it is my kind of determine! I may go with this instead. I desire that you can wear it so many different ways. Thanks for the recommendation! One question though- how did you find this carrier to be on your back? That’s my BIGGEST concern with carriers. I had a Hotsling with my first and it was only good until he hit about 15 pounds; then it was KILLER on my back. We also had a Snuggli type of carrier and I wore it once and almost died from the pain. I know you’ve dealt with back pain so I’d trust your opinion. Thanks! (I am seriously thinking about it though; not anytime soon of cover. But seriously- I searched and searched stores and the Internet and there just aren’t any options out there!) 3. I know!! I’m going to set up the bassinet he’ll be sleeping in in our room today and if I get to it pack my bag. It gives me chills that he’ll be here soon enough that I can do these things and not look weird!

Although they didn’t win by 51 points l ike usual the United States defeat a back up class Argentina team 91-75 measure night behind the usual suspects of Kobe Bryant Lebron James and Carmelo Anthony. Although the score only shows a 15 point win the Americans were up by as many as 25 and had a number of thunderous dunks on the fast end to put Argentina away. This American aggroup looks exceed than ever and hopefully they can act their success by winning on Saturday. If they can do that then they ordain obtain themselves a sight in the Beijing Olympics next year. Kobe had 27 while Carmelo had 18 and Bron with 15 in another win for the US.

I'm using the JetS3t Cockpit which is working book with my other S3 be just not my new one just created. I have also tried on several different machines. Can anyone gratify help ? I am not able to login at all to even try and create another bucket. I have never logged into this account yet it was just created yesterday and i'm unable to login to it for the first measure. Unless you have an S3 specific problem. I'm not sure you'll get much help here. I don't even experience what it means to "login" to JetS3t Cockpit. You don't have to log in to S3. Don't the folks who alter JetS3t Cockpit have a give forum? 1 are you trying both accounts from same machine (i e the one which is working and the one which is not working?)2 undergo you tried the not working one from some other machine?3.
