What type of spunding valve is best

[szap]

I am planning on trying pressurised fermenting and have a question on picking a spunding valve. Should I go with a blowtie style or a pressure release valve.

I use a blowtie. Much more accurate and consistent than the spring loaded pressure relief type.
What are you fermenting in, and is it pressure rated?

This is a quality item. I've used it a couple of times now with good results.

Spundit

Here is a thread I started on the subject as well.

BlowTie spunding valve

This is my first spunding valve. I cannot comment on the others but this one works perfect.

I also use the BlowTie on both my Flex+ fermenters.

Instead of starting new thread I thought I would reply here. I too ferment in 5 gallon corny kegs and want to try my hand at pressure fermenting on next batch. I am not sure which spunding valve to go with.

Blowtie
Blichmann
or this Spunding valve tee assembly with various tank/keg connection options

Blichman I would have to install weldless bulkhead in keg lid to install. Do you need to use blowoff tube for blichmann and blowtie style? I would prefer to just let it vent into the outdoor closet where fermenter sits.

I have a blowtie that I keep on a serving keg during fermentation. Fermenter CO2 purges the keg. Blowtie vents into my fermentation chamber.

I've had more success with a blowtie on a corny keg than with a spring-type spunding valve.

 

[Rogue_Atom87]

I ordered the blowtie
