Well...good news is it actually did hold up enough to last. Slowed the leak down enough that no significant amount was lost. Bad news is now that it's finished it's not outright spoiled, but the flavor has definitely noticeably been affected. It pretty much tastes like glue now and I'm just gonna ha...

Yeah this is the 2nd one I've had crack in the exact same spot. Last time I was lucky enough that it happened after finishing a batch. Still not sure if this is gonna work out. It held well the first few days, but now I'm having to patch it every few hours because new leaks just keep coming. Luckily...

So upon closer inspection my trub level is w...

They just called me back actually and set it up. All good now.

I'm going through the same thing myself. Customer service message hasn't been acknowledge or replied to. The BrewDemon account this thread says to message has been inactive since August 2020 so I can't imagine they're going to be responding to any messages. Today tried calling the customer service p...

Thanks everyone!

I'm mostly into stouts and ales. Lately have been really into the sour ales and I'd really like to eventually be able to...
