I'm new to brewing, I have my first batch in the BMB fermenter (Dead Ringer IPA) and will be starting my 2nd Batch tomorrow (Bourbon Barrel Porter), I have 2 primary's and 1 secondary at the moment, so I will be ordering another secondary as well. The reason for this post has to do with the universal lid for the Big Mouth Bubbler. All the reviews that I read showed great reviews, but lots of lid issues. I searched and found some fixes that I knew would not work, and some that just seemed like it would be a massive pain. While brewing, I found my solution. Very inexpensive, and the lid will NEVER pop off. I have attached a few pics of my setup in-case it can help someone else with the same concern. I used a very small ratchet strap, and it works great. Fermentation has been fantastic the first 36 hours. My goal is to get good enough to step away from the extract kits, and get into all-grain brewing.
