Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before your first use, wash the bucket, lid, and tap with non-abrasive soap and warm water. To set up, insert the tap through the designated hole at the base, ensuring the gasket is on the outside to create a leak-proof seal. Place the lid securely on top and push down firmly along the rim until you hear it snap into place. For the airlock, drill a hole in the center of the lid (if not pre-drilled) and insert the gasket followed by the fermentation tube filled halfway with water. To clean, rinse immediately after emptying and use a soft sponge to avoid scratching the plastic surface, which can harbor bacteria over time.
