George had a YouTube video showing 2 ways to connect the VacuVin to a glass carboy to de-gas after using the drill paddle-stirrer. One connection was through a carboy tip and the other through an airlock. Where is the carboy tip availableand is the airlock just any standard S-type?
Thanks

As for the airlock any airlock should work, as for the other its an orange carboy cap and any supplier sells them but Id get mine through George!

Carboy Cap
 
Will the 3 piece air lock work? I only used it on the S shaped airlock long ago. Worked well though!
 
It may work on the inside pce of the 3 pce. I know Ive hooked a hose up to it once to degas a batch with my vacuum pump but that was different so maybe not.
 
It's been a long time since I tried, but if I remember correctly, I couldn't get the Vacu-Vin to work on a three piece air lock. next time I get a chance, I'll try it and let you know.
