Spunding Valve

[Nicholas Jones]

Hi All, has anyone had a crack at making a spunding valve? Im mostly after where (in auckland ideally - but whatever) I can go to find an adjustable pressure relief valve 0-30psi or thereabouts? We've been pressure testing our fermenters and thinking about a KS stretch goal.. smashed 20k today, for which I think we have a lot to thank the folks on here. Wurd

I think keg resources have them, I've been wondering about trying out a 30psi safety release valve and a couple of days at 23-24 as a budget option. They have around 10% swing but worth a crack I reckon.

Thanks Sam, from what Ive been reading the theory is to enable the spunding valve a few days into ferment when you have chewed out a fair amount of sugar. Ill give Keg resources a ring tomorrow and see what they have, would like to brew in the weekend so that would be great if they have something. Totally worth a crack, cheers!
