I have a FastFerment conical. The sample port design is terrible in that the threads on the nut are intermittent and allow wort/beer to get trapped in the threads. I found gunk there even after overnighting with Oxiclean.
I want to get rid of the sample port. I don't use it, it's in the way, and if I took it off to clean after every brew I would have to leak test again and again. I was looking for a bulkhead plug and there are a few SS ones out there but not for the 1" hole the sample port required. I ordered a food grade silicone bung but I'm sure I'm missing a better way to solve this.
Thanks
Mike
