TonyW Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Leaking tap leaking tap alert!! [crying] i had beer spilling and shooting all over the place and my unhappiness was pretty well documented. There was no way i was going to keep using this FV with the tap the way it was and i was thinking about blocking it off and using the FV as a secondary and use my racking cane to get the beer out for bottling. I am happy to report that after making a brew then bottling 25 long necks and refilling the FV and taking OG samples i havent had a leak, not one [biggrin] the cure was simple all you do is spray some olive oil on the rubber parts between batches as recommended by Coopers and was overlooked by me.[roll] Give it a go if you havent, its cured my ill feelings toward these great fermenters. Please Coopers make them for sale without all the goodies inside and i will have another one tomorrow. [love] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
