Was it cube hopped?Bribie G said:I used a cube to hold up one end of a shelf in the garage for 18 months and it went on to get the second highest score last year in the NSW comp.
Not recommended as standard procedure however.
i manage to get all but the tiniest bubble out (likely to be from a hollow in the lid)Rocker1986 said:I do the same as n87. Except for the times I'm able to completely fill the cube to the brim with wort. In that instance the lid just goes straight on, maybe a light squeeze to get any excess air out. Then I leave it on its side for 15-20 mins to get the wort up into the handle, then back to upright for storage until fermentation. You will never remove all the air though, unless the handle is not hollow. All you can do is remove as much as possible.
same, I get no air in my cubes, if there is a teeny bubble, its usually absorbed as it coolsn87 said:i manage to get all but the tiniest bubble out (likely to be from a hollow in the lid)
you rock it back ~45 degrees, squeeze, tighten lid
as mine cools, it absorbs that little bubble so mine end up air free
And my handle is hollow
Mine cubes are white versions of this: http://willow.com.au/home.php/carry-cans/carry-can-20l.html
