The guy at the LHBS recommended to better seal by completely submerging in cool water for 2 full days, rather than using hot water.
Anyone used that method?
Should I stick with Vadai's instructions instead?
The plan is to barrel ferment a Chardonnay from grapes early next week. The silicon bung they have is small so I got a rubber bung.
Am I better off getting a silicone bung instead? I think someone mentioned 8 1/2, correct?
None of the lbhs carry this silicone bung size so trying not to order online just or such a small item.
