King Ruddager Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 I know there's already a fail thread, but there I am, pouring batch number one hundred and forty two into the fermenter when ... what's that on the floor? SHIT, THE TAP!!! Luckily I didn't lose much at all 4 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackSands Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 (edited) Done that more times than I care to admit - well in my case, leaving the tap open... Edited May 23, 2019 by BlackSands Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otto Von Blotto Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 (edited) I popped that cherry years ago, never done it since, although I did start filling the urn with water with the valve still half open recently  Better than spilling wort though Edited May 23, 2019 by Otto Von Blotto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SHIT, THE TAP!!! Luckily I didn't lose much at all I hear you. Last batch I put down, I wheeled the fermenter out of the kitchen, leaving a wet trail behind me. Apparently tightening the tap properly has its advantages  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gus96 Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 Did the tap half open once when doing two batches in a rush, didn't loose to much. The tap not tight on another one, lost about half a litre in the freezer while fermenting. lessons learned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
