- Use this valve with a standard soda bottle as an inexpensive and effective dry hopping solution
- Attaches to the PCO 1881 threaded port on the FermZilla fermenter's lid
- Carbonation Cap and Tee Piece can be added to allow for purging the hops with CO2
This really handy stainless adapter ball valve will enable you to connect two PCO 1881 threads with a valve in between. Each side has an integrated O-ring that will seal on the neck of the PCO1881 Thread. Ideally suited to making a dry hop device for FermZilla with a standard soda bottle or PET growler with PCO 1881 threaded neck.
As shown in the photo, if you use this stainless ball valve in conjunction with the PCO 1881 Tee Piece and the Carbonation Cap, you will have the added advantage of being able to use CO2 to purge out oxygen from the hops before you dry hop. This assembly makes an inexpensive and very effective dry hopping tool.
Please note: Dry hop pellets will require a bit of a shake to get them to fall through the 3/4" bore. Tapping the PET bottle should be enough to make the hops fall down into the fermenter through the ball valve.
