Prost!

Good advice at the right time. I am driving to Cairns on Wednesday. Will take a tap and go to Pan's Labyrinth (AKA Bunning's)
Sometimes i just need other people to think for me!

thanks and cheers.

BH!

Take your Beneficial to the local hardware store & try out the tubing available.
If you are still in doubt see Ned.

I just cut about 30 mm of the end of a brewers bottler; you know those hard plastic tubes with a foot valve at 1 end.
They fit nicely into both the snap and regular taps, then push a piece of 8 or 10 mm tube about 1.5 meters long onto the piece, it will fit down through the airlock hole on your second fermenter.

Handy if your bottling, you can fit what is left of the brewers bottler onto the other end, then have all your bottles in crates/boxes on the floor, with the fermenter on the table or bench, just go from bottle to bottle works a treat when you are bulk priming.
