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)

What is the pressure rating on this?

BEST ANSWER: I have successfully used this as a sight glass on the bottom of my conicals while spunding/force-carbing to 15psi.
Do you need to sanitize this each time i add a dry hop addition?
Rob Cork on May 22, 2023
BEST ANSWER: 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.

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!
