Has anyone purchased a bucket and lid from Northern Brewer recently. I wanted a 2nd primary and received The lid it today. The lid seems much cheaper than the one that came with my original True Brew kit and does not have a gasket to seal the top. It should close tight, but wondering if it will be tight enough???
 
you really don't need to worry about if it seals 100% perfect. All the lid needs to do is cover the primary to keep nasties from settling onto your wort.
 
Is it an "Ale Pail"? Thats the original one I got from Midwest and it has a gasket. I'm just using Better Bottles now and loving it, much easier to clean and they don't stain or hold smells.
