Plastic Spigot For Bucket (With Sediment Block)

    Description

    As far as bucket spigots go, this is about as cool as you get. First, unlike many other designs, these spigots don't leak (bonus).  Second it rotates even when sealed so it won't hit the table or floor (duh!). Third the outlet barb has two different diameters so that you can attach  3/8" or 1/2" tubing (thats cool).

    The interior nut on these spigots also have a unique design where the opening can be rotated up to effectively block sediment if used in a bucket for fermentation or can be rotated down when used in a bottling bucket (genius).  These are also just beefier than other spigots on the market.

        Perfect and leak free

        I have these on 4 fermenter buckets and they have worked perfectly for several years with zero leaks. Gasket goes on the outside and don’t over-tighten. Highly recommended!

        Nice

        I was tired or siphoning beer out of my big mouth bubbler and after drilling a hole this was the answer.

        Works really nice, it didn't leak and allows me to turn the spigot 90 degrees without loosening up the fitting nut.

        Excellent faucet for plastic bucket

        Good seal. Roatates smoothly. Good flow and volume. The sediment block was not the reason I bought this, but I can see it would work well.

        This Could Be Better

        I bought two of these for two new Fermonster fermenters. They only come with ONE washer. On the first fermenter I had the washer on the inside, and it leaked. I repositioned it, and it leaked. I took it apart and tried again, and it leaked. I took it apart and moved the washer to the outside, and it sealed the first time. Two weeks later I readied the next fermenter and started with the washer on the outside. It sealed the first time. I still have concerns as these house long term sours. Conclusion - On Fermonster fermenters you’ll want to use the washer on the outside. Knock on More Beer - How much would it cost to have this manufactured with two washers? I’m guessing less than $0.05. I would be more than willing to pay a little extra for something that has ALL the parts needed to function safely and properly. Someone has to know there is a problem here, and it should be fixed on their future purchase orders to their supplier.

        good idea

        this spigot was designed to prevent the sediment or true from being transferred, if your location is too high it may hold back too much clear liquid

        Decent, and cheap.

        This leaks less and is more sturdy than the other plastic spigot available on MoreBeer.It also rotates, which can be nice, but difficult to clean.The "sediment block" feature is useless, since sediment will still accumulate inside the spigot, making it more difficult to get a clear sample.I would pay for something better quality than this.... Hint, hint.

        Works well

        Attached to bucket with the whole already cut. works great. Hols is only about 1 inch. Sediment block can get clogged though.

        Just the spigot

        Was kind of disappointed that the spigot didn't come with a rubber washer and o-rings.

        Just buy this one

        Don't bother with the old design. I went through a number of those and they all broke off after awhile. The old one doesn't rotate and you have to be extra careful with it, if it's too tight. This one is a much better design. It rotates and you can easily line it up. No hassles. It just works

        Does this fit the plastic fermonster ported carboys?

        MoreBeer!

        Yes they will fit. I had to enlarge the hole a smidge with some sandpaper. I only use 1 gasket and no problems with any leaks. Maybe smoothing out the hole helps with that.

        MoreBeer!

        The factory hole in the fermonster is just a little to small for the spigot(sediment block) but you can enlarge the hole with sandpaper file or a small power tool( I used a Dremel). Take your time so you make a true. round hole.I didn't take much off to get it to fit properly

        MoreBeer!

        I'm not sure what you get in a "ported carboy". I had two fermonster carboys that were no ported as far as I know but had a flat area that looked as if it were intended to be "drilled" to receive a spigot. I ordered two spigots and with some trepidation I managed to cut good clean holes using a holesaw and sanded them down a trifle to fit the spigots. So yes I expect that it would fit but I have no direct experience. When I ordered I hadn't realized that it had the sediment block and I would prefer not to have the sediment block. The first time i used one of the newly fitted spigots it leaked slightly so since then I have used two washers one inside the carboy and one outside and made sure to tighten the nut really tightly. Hope this helps.

        MoreBeer!

        I have purchased two of them from MoreBeer for my Fermonsters and I can confirm that they fit. Order an extra FE348 spigot washer though. I have had trouble with spigots sealing on Fermonsters when only one washer is used. I now use a washer on the inside and on the outside. The extra washer is cheap insurance to me.

        what size hole should I drill in the fermonster to install this?

        MoreBeer!

        I just measured the OD of the threaded end using calipers. It measures 1.030" in diameter. If you have a step drill bit in 1/16" increments you can use 1-1/16"

        MoreBeer!

        I believe it is one inch
