Does this mean I shouldn't just lay the lid on with a towel on top? If I place the lid on tight I can't get it off. Sure smells Good! This is the Mosti Mondiale Amarone on it's third day of fermentation.

Just hate to do that, because it is so hard for me to get off. This one is to be stirred gently every day until the S.G. reaches 1020.

sangwitch said:I don't think it says 6 gallons, it says"6 US GALS & 23 LITERS = TO BOTTOM RUNG" and that'stowards the bottom under the graduated ticks for measuring various volumes. If you flip the bucket upside down and look on the very bottom it will read 6.5 Imperial gallons (if it's a 7.9)
My first thought was the same as smurfes because I once made the mistake of going past that mark myself. It's hard to tell where the liquid level is in the pics because of all the foam.
Has anyone else had this issue w/ the juice kits and a 7.9 gal primary?
