Hi guys,
I have done a google search and also a forum search but have not come across an answer for my question, although I suspect that I might not be the only one who stumbled over this issue.
I'm about to start my first brew on the weekend. I bought a cheap Brigalow starter kit for only $36 at Kmart, mainly to get a half decent fermenter and tap etc.
I have a 50l esky which the fermenter fits perfectly in, so it should be easier to control the temperature in the Brissy heat. My only problem is: The esky is just big enough for the fermenter, but not for the airlock.
Do I really need the airlock or are there other ways. I could obviously attach a hose and let it run through a water bucket, but given the limited space in the esky I rather see if there is another option.
Would appreciate any input you guys have.
Thanks,
Florian
