    Bice tips, I though of doing somthing like that, picking the foriginal orms with ballistic foam, silicon or plaster , hehehe... that should work easily and good for a lid, but for a cone I think its a little harder, althoug what could be done is a lid for the bottom, with a centered exit for a...

    Fermzilla Dump Valve Adaption?

    so, I imported the 3d scan to autodesk inventor but it got a LOT of feometry to adjust, and since my skills and equipment for a 3d photogrametry is poor, the model came into inventor with a lot of imperfections to reconstruct, though it would be something close to insanity trying to solve that...

    Fermzilla Dump Valve Adaption?

    Thing is, buying an pet keg could prove to be almost the same, if you change the siphoon for a floating dip, but way more cheaper I've manage to do some photogrametry and a little cleaning, but it is still raw material, most because my lack of experience and equipment for taking a good photo to...

    Fermzilla Dump Valve Adaption?

    the jar broke on the cap threads (too much screwing and unscrewing with unecessary strengh) thing is, the thread of the jar is 4.5", the inner thread seems smaller, though I can't verify that now because Im fermenting on it right now. I searched for 4.5" bulkheads and reductors to fit the jar...

    compact peltier cooled carboy setup

    Gruel, yeas I undertanded that you need to cold the hot side of the peltier, but what is the efficiency of the system just with the fan/dissipatort (a expensive good and a cheap bad)? the dissipator/fan would chill the hot side of the peltier, think about 5L or 10L, added a child paint image...

    compact peltier cooled carboy setup

    Nice! Confess I dont quite understand if there are more than one similar project here could you chill a 10L keg running an outside copper around the keg without gaving a cold water bank? I mean, could it be possible to install the peltier on that water block, it will refrigerate the liquid that...
