Just finally tried out the new hop bong on my Fermzilla. Had to email morebeer prior to using because the lid is really hard to press into the opening. Big PITA you have to put the collar on first then attach your post otherwise the collar won’t go down.
Then it came time to drill my new lid for the temp twister and thermowell. Step drilling wasn’t bad but the duotight fittings were a pain as always. Got past that then realized that I was going to have to bend the temp twister in order to have the coil sitting correctly in the fermenter. I was in a hurry and don’t have a pipe bender so I proceeded to try by hand and crimped my coil at the bend (luckily not fully closed). Also noticed this puts the thermowell nearly right up against the coil.
Anyone have a pic of their correctly installed coil/thermowell on the new hop bong lid?
Also sucks I will have to get a new coil for my 15g Fermzilla after bending for my 7 gallon.
