Yeah that's the only I asked cos otherwise I would just order here

Hey along the lines of this discussion... Are you able to get grain shipped from Oz to NZ? Cheers

Sorry I figured it out myself. Cheers

Hi I'm hoping someone may be able to help me. So today I was going to clean my new out of the box Grainfather connect.. I put 15 litres of water in it and was going to run some GF cleaner through the system.. turned the pump on and it made a horrible noise and would not pump... After taking...

After all that I still have a massive leak. Came home from work had no pressure left in the vessel. Put more gas into it and it's escaping from under the lid again..Does anybody's look like this I noticed it's a bit warped on the lid?

Looks like it was leaking out of my spunding valve from the thread of the disconnect, need some thread tape around it. So I have replaced the o ring on the lid and put it on not too tight and it's working now. I also replaced the o ring on the collection vessel too thinking I butchered that one...

I think I must have stuffed my first o ring.. I used one of the replacement ones and now it's holding pressure far better than the first one. Still have a slow leak coming from somewhere... Don't have anything big enough to submerge it in though. Cheers everyone for the help. Might not need a...

I'll have to inspect the o ring closely. That's interesting yours does up that easily. The lid piece does almost seem to easily to place in there?..I'll have another look. I've emailed my seller about getting a replacement. But will keep trying with it. Cheers for your help

It's definitely not the carb caps. It's the lid. It just won't go tight enough. You can hear the escaping gas get smaller and smaller as you tighten it, but even using the tool which I know you are not meant to use to tighten it does not completely stop the gas leaking. Super frustrating

Thanks mate. I will give this a go

Gotta say getting pretty disheartened with the Fermzilla. I can not get it to pressurise now.. it leaks out if the lid.. I've tried heaps of lube and varying levels of tightness but it just leaks.. Starting to get pissed off

Cheers everyone on the replies to the gas leak issue. I applied quite a bit of lube to the seal and now it seems all good. I didn't realise that stuff can make such a difference. I have to do the same with the collection chamber now cos I had a leak coming out of there but ran out of time to...

Hey Guys, cheers for the help its been awesome. Tonight I tried to do a pressure test on the Fermzilla... I filled it up almost half way put the two carb caps on and then turned on the gas. I seem to have a massive gas leak coming out from the lid?? Like i cant get it tight enough. Anybody...

Thanks for the replies. So it sounds like you guys are just fermenting with the pressure created from the start. I mean if you don't how do you do it? Just unscrew the airlock cap and put on the carb cap when you want to change it over? I'm sure I'm overthinking this haha Cheers

Hi guys. Looking forward to breaking in my Fermzilla sometime soon but just wondering if anybody is doing pressure fermentation? And when do you start it? My idea was to set the fermenter in the fermentation fridge, have the carbonation caps on both posts and a spunding valve on one, set it at...

Oh right, a second bottle is on the cards

I will get one eventually. They are still 2-300 bucks here in NZ

Mate that's awesome. This is exactly what I've been searching for. I think it should fit. If it doesn't I'll have to find something else haha. Thanks

Hey, sorry for late reply. Could you please tell me the size and where you got that qd from? I can't really find many online.. cheers

Ok this sounds pretty easy, that's just a two way duotight fitting right? Cheers
