i have a brew going i think, as it shows all signs of fermenting other than airlock not moving. I borrowed fermenter of a mate and have now noticed the o ring has a slight deformation in it which i think might be letting some air escape. As i said all the signs are that it is brewing, condensation on lid and can detect some foaming so my thought is just to let it be. Is this the right course to take or should i try and fix the o ring? Brew is blue mtn lager, 1kg ultra brew,250g dextrose + tea bag tettunger hops. thanks
 
Neddy,

Let er rip!. The CO2 being expelled will keep the brew safe from air-borne nasties.
Leave it for 2 weeks, and you should have a clear, delicious drop of fine ale/lager.

Mrogans Blue Mountain is a good drop, but a better drop is Morgans Queensland Bitter, that with some brew booster , 500g Dex, and a bag of Cluster hops is very close to Beer Heaven.

cheers

forget the dextrose and go all malt. boil half the hops for 15 minutes and the other half add to the boil with 1 minute to go.
