        I'll be glad when it cools down a bit.

        Put 36 galls of wine on between yesterday afternoon and this morning and it's already spurting out the airlocks despite nearly 2 galls of headspace in each fermenter, good job they're sitting in growbag trays. Just went to check of them and saw a red cap from the top of an airlock blow off across the room.

            Well, the consensus is that it is faulty and it is being collected tomorrow morning, and being refunded as there is no stock currently. Possibly, they will be back in stock by 1st July, but no guarantees, so I have just purchased one from a family business from Sussex who seem to get fantastic reviews on Google and Checkatrade - it is arriving on Saturday morning.

                Almost certainly not, and probably not for a couple of weeks even, but the thought of being without it does not fill me with any joy

                  @fat controller .....I don`t think it`s faulty, just upside down - it needs turning around. I only know because my own flag was also at half mast and upside down, and a knowledgeable camper told me it was wrong - and HE was a scout master for years ...so he turned it round for me AND did 'proper' knots too.
