This lid lets you easily add a TC port and two ball lock posts to your Fermzilla for addons like the hop bong or CIP etc. For that it works very well, and is built to take a beating. It holds pressure no issues and I've used it with a hop bong with great results. The only gripe I have with it is the collar from the Fermzilla that screws on over this piece tends to unscrew any ball lock posts because there isn't enough clearance. As you turn the collar, the ridges along the inside rim rub and unscrew the posts which both makes unscrewing the collar unnecessarily difficult and leaves you scrambling to grab the posts as they come off. Kegland needs to tweak the molding of the collar to give a few extra mm of clearance. It's by no means a deal breaker, but it is annoying.
With this you can really do all a conical does pretty much at a much lower cost. Well designed and built.
I am nervous about bending my coil to work with this lid. Do you have a video showing tips and tricks on how to bed the stainless steel temp twister coils 20 degrees to work with this lid?
I can't really give you any tips and tricks all I can really say is that it's a huge pain in the butt to install the coil and thermowell. Bending the coil is hard because it's hard to get a grip on it and the thermowell port cutout is a bit of a tight fit with the nut they supply for the fitting to the point where it won't quite spin so you have to force things from one side.
Can you use this to dry hop with leaf or just pellets?
Will there be a predrilled version of this available for temptwister and thermowell?
How will this attach to the Fermzilla Conical as opposed to the Tri-Conical?
I can't imagine it would be any different. You can use the same lids for both
