Using gas from the fermentation can allow you to purge your kegs, purge a secondary fermenter, make up a cask breather if casking, also make up a breather if cold crashing with little or no pressure.
These collapsible water carriers come in useful to use with a cask, either in the fridge or connected as a cask breather.
They come in different sizes, and are cheap, the small size would be useful in the fridge when cold crashing.
Capturing the gas.
Cheap to set up using 20 and 25 litre heavy duty cubes, cobble up a spanner to fit the barbs onto the cubes $7 and $9 respectively for the cubes.
So jollster 101 that's about all, anything else you need to as know just ask, if you are making cask ale you will never have to buy gas, this set up is cheap, and so easy to use, if you keg connect a bottle to the cube and pressurise the gas in the cube to send into the keg. I did try using water pressure but water carries oxygen so I gave that a miss.
