KIT FOR FERMENTING

UNDER PRESSURE
Important Safety Information
Please read this entire instruction card for important safety information prior to the use of your
Pressure Pack with Clear Float Technology KIT. Please also read the X Series instruction manual that
came with your fermenter and review all warnings.

If sealed, the fermenter can be pressurized due to the production of CO2 in fermentation or the
introduction of compressed gas. When the Fermenter is pressurized, incorrect use can lead to a risk of
the lid or fittings being launched with great force and causing serious injury or death. To reduce this
risk, follow these precautions to safely pressurize and release pressure, and to prevent unintentional
pressurization:
• Before removing the lid clamp, TC (Tri-Clamp) fittings, or accessories, release all pressure by opening
the Pressure Relief Valve (PRV) .
• Do not overfill your conical past the maximum volumes listed below. Overfilling can cause fermentation
material called Krausen to clog the blow off and airlock.
• Do not place pellet hops, whole hops, oak chips, or other items directly into the fermenter. Loose
material can clog the blow off and airlock. Use a mesh bag to contain these types of materials.
• Do not alter or change the Pressure Relief Valve (PRV) built into the lid.
• Pressurize with compressed gas only with the Pressure Pack with Clear Float Technology. Always use
an approved CO2 regulator, with a functional low-pressure gauge. Never exceed 15 PSI.
• Do not seal/cap an actively fermenting beer, except when using the BrewBuilt Kit for Fermenting
Under Pressure.
• When the optional BrewBuilt Flex Chamber is installed always keep the bottom butterfly valve open,
allowing CO2 to be released. Failure to keep the valve open could cause the Flex Chamber to become
over pressurized and explode.

ASSEMBLY
1. Make sure the optional Pressure Pack lid assembly is installed on your X Series Fermenter.
2. Using the tri-clamps that came with this kit, install the Commercial PRV, Pressure Gauge and
Spunding Valve onto the 4 way TC Cross as shown in the photo on page 2.
3. Install the TC Cross onto the highest available 1.5" TC port.
4. Ensure the Pressure Relief Valve built into your fermenter lid is
properly installed.

DIRECTIONS
MAXIMUM FILL LEVELS:
• 7 Gallon X Series – 5.5 gallons liquid
• 14 Gallon X Series – 11 gallons liquid
• 27 Gallon X Series – 21.5 gallons liquid
• 42 Gallon X Series – 33 gallons liquid
Always add two drops per gallon of CellarScience Foam Axe. Foam Axe is an anti-foam agent
that reduces the potential build-up of Krausen. If Krausen enters the pressure relief valves it
can potentially clog them, affecting their ability to safely release pressure.
If you see krausen (foam from fermentation) exiting any of the pressure relief valves, you need
to immediately release the pressure in the fermenter, clean the relief valves, and ferment the
rest of the batch without pressure, using the blow-off tubing that came with your Brewbuilt
X Series Fermenter.
The Spunding valve features a hand-adjustable blow-off to dial in your desired pressure setting.
We suggest a range of 10-12 psi for most fermentations. Never exceed 15 PSI.
RELEASING PRESSURE

Before removing the lid clamp, TC fitting, or any accessory, you must first release any pressure
from your BrewBuilt Fermenter.
Refer to your X Series User manual for detailed directions on how to release pressure.
