Will this work with the BMBF setup that uses the racking cane?

Just curious if you got my email on 1/18 or not since I have not heard anything. I know your busy but I just want to make sure my email didn't get blocked or something. Thanks!

I think he's just backlogged quite a bit... I guess after reading, he makes them by hand... not sure if he has enough demand or not to outsource it as I'm sure its fairly time consuming. I sent an email on the 16th and am still waiting word...

What worked for me is is to use one of the smaller o-rings on the back end. I took the other 3 off.

I sent an email over the weekend, but if for some reason it didn't go through, I am interested in buying an adapter.

Thanks in advance,

Jay

Got to try mine out finally last Saturday. Wow this thing makes it so easy and my first bottle was perfect. Then the keg ran out - DOH! I also got the complement and used the air pump needle mod (even easier!). Be patient, Ben will get to you and he is extremely helpful even when the postal service decides to destroy your package.

For those wanting to gauge how long you might have to wait -- it was right around 3 weeks from when I sent the email requesting to when I got the response back that it was ready and needed payment. You probably won't get anything in between.

Well worth the wait - had a bit of a learning curve I think on the initial try, but was getting the hang of it by the end of the 6-pack I bottled.

At first the adapter was getting blown out by the pressure of the co2 (12 psi) -- but i think I may have put a little too much keg lube on the o-rings and it was just a bit too slippery... by the end of it it was only moving a tiny bit and just had to keep an eye on it.

I just came in here to see if I should resend my email, but I guess a wait is normal.

Sent an email the other day to request one! Looks great! Can't wait to get one.

Just thought I'd chime in. I waited ~3 weeks between emailing and receiving mine in the mail. Well worth the wait. Now I wish I'd bought two. Irrenarzt's kit is excellent as well. I've filled 12oz and 22oz bottles, growlers, and a 3 gallon keg (by putting a ball lock qd on the tube) and it couldn't have been easier. Thanks guys!

Thanks for the prop!

Times have been slow in the complement world. Please PM me with requests if you need one. I have plenty of stock and can ship the same day in most cases.
