no problem, I was wondering if this had just been forgotten on here. I have since brewed this three times, each time changing a little, I think the first was the best. So, Really watch the fermementer chances are it will blow the top, did on all three, and make sure to dry hop the secondary not...

This is amazing! I take my brew to afew events and its always the loose keg and co2. I'm going to use our idea and build one for my pin locks. Great job. Very cool
