G'day Brewers,
I just received my second online order from Dave's Homebrew, a bulk priming bucket, bottle tree and rinser, Munton's Export Stout and a mixed stout pack of dried malt/dextrose/maltodextrin.
To my disappointment I opened the bucket to find the dried malt bag had been punctured by a piece of the bottle tree and it's all over everything. I'm not sure if what's left in the bag is any good to use. There's a small hole in the bag and I'm not sure exactly how much has escaped.
Also not very impressed about the priming bucket. The hole for the tap looks like it's been carved out by a kitchen knife, my 4 yo daughter could have done a better job of it.
The priming bucket came with a piece of hose and an adaptor to connect it to a fermenter tap. I'm not sure if this is gonna be the best way to transfer my wort. I'm thinking it would be better to siphon my wort from the top to avoid any sediment. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
The instructions that came with the priming bucket are the lamest I've ever seen. I'll need to find a formula for bulk priming.
Perhaps it would be best to buy some better equipment from another retailer for this job.
Cheers
