I like to test but I hate to open the bucket!!! ( Pull Off or Screw Lid )
I came up with this system to getthe wine thief in easy. Plus, No morerubber grommets!!
I cut the pvc pipe end off a (1 1/2" PVC pipe to 1 1/2 PVC thred coupling) Then cut the cap end off the cap leaving a nut. And then found a rubber washer at ACE to seal it. The rubber is on the outside to minimize exposure to the wine. ( I found later that I should have useda 1 1/2 electrical bushing as a nut. Properly used the plastic electrical bushing is used to protect the wire from the sharp edge of the metal pipe)
