Nope, in my original post I said I cut the barb off. Correct, I just threaded the body of the tap. The plastic is a little thin at the end where the barb was, but no issues so far and I've been using them on and off for the last 2-3 years. I used a hand drill, so just be careful you are drilling...

Okay here's the drill bit and pipe tap/thread cutter I used. It is actually fairly simple, I cut the barbed end off, drilled out the hole thats left after the barb is cut off, cut the threads using the thread cutter and screwed the John guest fitting from the 1st picture in.

I cut off the barb and tapped and threaded the end of the barb. I'll try and find the tap kit I used after I wake up later.

I took the idea from an old post I saw on here a few years ago, but I cut the barb off the picnic tap and threaded it to take a John guest fitting.

I'd also be interested if this is still available.

So I was considering something similar, how is is your ferm chamber holding more than a year later? Anything you would change or do differently?
