    Concerned about CO2 buildup in cooler

    Heya all, I've made it a whole two batches without freaking out and asking questions (RDWHAHB!) but I'm finally at my limit and would like to get some opinions on my current issue :) I've built a cooler for my fermenting bucket by using two plastic containers. One container sits normally on...
