Ahhh, but someone must suffer for others to learn.

Iguess an airlock brush would do agood job of keeping it clean. Thanks Joe.

Experience, like with Maui, teaches us a lot. The more we can spread our experiences, hopefully, the fewer learning experiences we will have to learn ourselves.

The knowledge here on this forum is unsurmountable if one just takes the time to read. Love this place!

 

[Hippie]

Yep. Fast becoming my favorite. I noticed the other night that Tim Vandergrift, kit developer for Winexpert, has joined this forum.

I have to say that I really appreciate this forum and all who are on it. I've laughed so much lately! It's great! Thanks!

 

[RAMROD]

Laughter can cure the world of anything so don't ever stop!

am i stupid or what? when i first put the spigot in the bucket, i put the gasket on the inside, with the nut,it leaked like crazy. i decided to try it on the outside&lo and behold it sat 3 days without leaking a drop. which is the correct side to place the gasket? i think i found it, but i wanted to ask to make sure.

You should have 2 gaskets, one for the inside and one for the outside! Did you get it from George?

 

[geocorn]

Country is correct. You should have 2 gaskets, one for the inside of the bucket and one for the outside. If you don't have 2 gaskets and you got it from me, let me know and I will send you a replacement.

You can also call me on the phone to place an order. I take orders anyway I can get them!

Since I'm learning from all of you, tell me what the advantage of the spigot is. I'm thinking it is to drain the wine off from above the sediment rather than siphoning. I'm not very good at siphoning and have had quite a buzz just getting it started

but practice makes perfect

. Then would you attach a siphon hose from the spigot to the secondary? or do i have the wrong idea all together.

Yes that is the idea to drain from the primary to the secondary with a hose attached to the spigot. I have been scolded plenty of not doing it this way from others and have learned this is the best way...

Get yourself a Auto Siphon to rack from your secondaries and it will be a much simpler task and no contaminating the hose by drinking from it!!!
