@KegLand-com-au I sent a PM a while back about this and haven't heard anything, but I'm really hoping you can help me out
In regards to 3D printing tap locks for your Nukataps
My 3 year old has recently figured out how to serve himself from the soda water tap, so I thought I'd better 3D print some tap locks to stop him from using the taps with beer/spirits connected
Just wondering if you'd be willing to send me a tech drawing of the side profile (with dimensions) or a 3D model of the taps?
I'm happy to promise not to disclose the dimensions, drawings etc to anyone else as I just want these to make the modelling easier
This would just make things a lot quicker than me figuring our the dimensions and having to print a bunch of test prints.
I'm more than happy to provide my completed 3D printable STL file to the community once I'm done, for free of course.

No worries at all. We have uploaded a 2D scaled drawing here that is 1:1 scale:

Legends!
Thank you very much, I'll sit down over the weekend and try to get this knocked out
I'll link my design a new thread when it's done
No worries. Keen to see what you come up with. Let us know if you need anything else.
Hey Meddo. It was a couple years ago when you asked for the FermZilla tri-clover dump valve. It's taken loads of R&D to do this but we have finally got to the finish line and made the FermZilla with tri-clover base. This is a very exciting development as some customers in the past have found the double nut assembly at the bottom of the conical fermzilla complicated, can get jammed if it gets overtightened.
After numerous requests from people like yourself to make the FermZilla bases tri-clover we have finally done this and released the FermZilla Tri-Conical. This is a really cool product and is very very simple to take apart and clean making it more sanitary.
Hope you guys enjoy using this new fermenter. The dump valve is quite a large 3" dump valve and the hops and heast easily just fall straight down this hole.

Yes!!
May have to finally make the jump from all-rounders.

Kegland is the trumour valid that the FermZilla Tri-Conical may come out with a stainless steel body vice the plastic in the near future??

Ok I’ve tried searching for the hop bong pressure kit by name and kegland part number and both with no results
Does this thing even exist?

Hey @KegLand-com-au do you have an adapter that goes from a standard co2 bottle to this thread on a disposable bottle? Just want to use a standard homebrew co2 bottle instead of these expensive disposables for in sink soda tap

Has there been any thought in making an adaptor from the gen2 fermzilla valve to a tri-clover collection container? I've only owned my gen2 for a year and the biggest annoyance is the sticking collection chamber. It would be great to only have to buy an adaptor and a tri-clover collection chamber lid to upgrade instead of buying a whole new setup.
This is being injection moulded now. We are making the 1.5inch and the 2inch TC hop bong. At the same time we are also making new lids for the FermZilla with a 2"TC opening so these can easily be attached to the FermZilla lids.
I think these should be in stock in about 6 weeks. The New FermZilla lids are still a little further away.
That was the reply 11/1/22, I'm waiting as well.

Looks like they got a handle on it. KegLand updated the photos of the 8 liter polymer kegs, which now show a new, yellow handle (and maybe raised the price a bit). So perhaps the handle issue is worked out, and these will be available again soon.
@KegLand-com-au
Does the 8L pet keg kit come with the handles?
It comes with the keg, tapping head but no mention of the carrying handle and I can't see it as a separate purchase.

Yes all of these 8L PCO38 Kegs come with Handles. The handles just arrived to us so the guys in the warehouse are packaging with handles. The tapping head for these is sold separately here.
One of the dimensions on the tooling for the new FermZilla Lid was slightly out of the tolerance. As a result we have decided to change tooling and get more air mailed over to us and will now be another 2-3 weeks away. Sorry about this delay. With that said the new FermZilla Tri-Conical uni tanks were finished on time and are available now but will probably sell out soon.
This is really quite difficult to do. We are going to get the replacement tanks available very soon and I think this is really the best option. The new Tri-Conical FermZilla is way better designed and the yeast and hops fall down into the collection container really well. If we just make an adaptor you will only get part of the upgrade. If you wanted to upgrade one of the old ones you would need to purchase a new tank, new butterfly valve, the collection container lid and a 3inch tri-clover clamp.
What about if for customers who have purchased the older design we offer a period whereby we give a discount for an upgrade kit so customers can upgrade from the old one to the new tri-conical design?
It might be best to send us an email with the photo of the o-rings that you need replaced and one of the customer service guys will assist you. I dont think the replacement o-rings are listed as a product on the website so I think an order might need to be manually made for you.
If you are doing this upgrade you need to purchase a larger 2.6 cylinder like this one and then upgrade to a conventional CO2 regulator like this one.
