Airlock for Fermentation Vessel - Quality Protection During Fermentation Process
A reliable airlock ensures the success of the process in your fermentation vessel. This 2-bubble model is specifically designed for containers with volumes of 1-50 liters and is installed in a 9 mm opening.
Main Features of the Airlock
- 65 mm rubber cork for bottle neck
- Effectively protects against flies and contamination
- Prevents oxidation process
- Suitable for wide range of fermentation uses
Working Principle of the Airlock
The airlock works through a siphon system where water prevents outside air access. Carbon dioxide produced during fermentation escapes through the airlock due to overpressure, maintaining optimal conditions in the container.
Maintenance and Usage
Regular checking and liquid refilling is necessary as water in the airlock may evaporate. Instead of regular water, a 10% sulphite solution can be used for disinfection. During cleaning, note that this model requires more thorough maintenance compared to cylindrical models.
