Hop Bong Sight Glass - 1.5 in. T.C.

    Description

    The Hop Bong is a versatile pressurizable tri-clamp accessory, capable of not only dry hopping oxygen purged hops into fermenters, but also as an inline carbonation/oxygenation accessory. This particular sized tri-clamp Hop Bong was designed for the BrewBuilt X-Series Uni Conical fermenters for their 1.5" T.C. lid port.

    The side port features PCO1881 male threads so you have the option to add a Ball Lock Cap. When used as a dry hopping device on top of your fermenter, this will allow you to purge your additions of oxygen by flushing them with CO2. When used as a sight glass below your fermenter (if your conical has a 1.5" bottom port, or if you use it along with a 2" x 1.5" reducer), bubble CO2 from the bottom up via the Ball Lock Cap to rouse hops or carbonate finished beer.

    Constructed from Nylon 12: An autoclavable, extremely robust, and chemical resistant engineering plastic.

    Hop Pellet Capacity: 80–120g (2.8–4.2 oz)

        Off-label use... Sight glass for conical dump!

        I use the 1.5" version not as a hop dropper... But as a sight glass on the bottom of my conical. Only gripe in this use is that it would be better as a straight sight glass without the CO2 port. Let's see some polycarbonate sight glasses made!

        Do you need to sanitize this each time i add a dry hop addition?

        MoreBeer!

        Yes equipment used for cold side additiions should be sanitized before use.

        MoreBeer!

        If you’re talking about the same batch you can probably get away with not cleaning and sanitizing it but it’s def not a bad idea too do so. You should clean and sanitize everything for every batch though.

        MoreBeer!

        I sanitize it once in advance of adding dry hops. If I was loading it multiple times for a single round of dry hopping I would not sanitize between those.

        MoreBeer!

        I don't know if you absolutely need to but I wash between dry hop sessions and sanitize prior to each use. If I am doing multiple dry hops the same day I don't wash or sanitize between them.

        What is the pressure rating on this?

        MoreBeer!

        I have successfully used this as a sight glass on the bottom of my conicals while spunding/force-carbing to 15psi.
