Ok now I fell like a real jackass, I just got a 5 gallon bucket and lid from the bakery dept. at Walmart to use as a primary. The only problem was that the lid was not drilled so I could fit the airlock. I drilled it myself, but I drilled the hole a little too big. To compensate, I have placed a grommet on both sides of the lid in the hopes that it will catch the air. All of this happened yesterday and today when I open my brew closet, all I can smell is the Cider fermenting. So have I screwed the pooch on this one or should I be ok?
