Adding a airlock to fermentation bucket

[bfbf]

Hi

I have just brought a job lot of stuff (2 King Kegs, Heaters, corker and more!)

The only problem is the fermentation bins have solid lids so I would need to fit an airlock to produce my turbo cider in there.

Is it possible to buy lids (in UK) for them with airlock holes or is there a way of adding one without letting gas leak in and out?

Many Thanks
Ben

Buy a stopper for your airlock to go in and then drill a hole smaller than the stopper in the lid.

Ok have some stoppers so will do that! Thanks for your help

you can also buy the small gromets that go in the lids for like $.35 a piece at most homebrew places.

I second that, as that is what I did!

I had some free buckets with lids, that didn't have a spigot or airlock.

I just drilled the holes for them, and all is okay!
