I have a couple of the blue fermenters that Andy used to have. I had trouble with infection so I quit using them. I need to get them back into the rotation, wondering what those that have them are using for the lid sealant. I know Shane said something about seals from other lids, just don't remember. Really thinking about some kind of food grade silicone, just have no idea where to find it. Any thoughts or ideas would be appreciated. Running out of fermenting space.

Thanks,
Melissa

Run a thick bead of DAP Aqurium silicone found at Westlakes, places like that. and let it dry. Of course remove the old seal.
Once the fermenter is clean, soak in double mix starsan and that will kill anything in there. I spoke on the phone for hours with Charlie Talley owner/founder of 5 star chemicals a few years back and that is what he suggested.
