Use in conjunction with a Digital Temperature Controller and an Electric Fermentation Heater (#40535) for complete control over fermenting temperatures in cool environments. Fits 3, 5, 6, or 6.5 gallon glass carboys. Not compatible with Better Bottles.
Also compatible with the Northern Brewer Dual-Stage Temp Controller, Inkbird Temp Controller, Thermostar®, and Johnson Digital temperature controllers.
Fits the top of the Big Mouth Bubbler perfectly, and really has helped to have more control over the primary fermentation. Before I bought this, my Cider would come out to 4.2-4.5 ABV, now I can get 6.5-6.8 by using this with the Temp controller and probe.

Great Idea, Poor Execution
I really like the idea of having a thermometer in my beer as it ferments, but this sadly isnt a solution. I cannot for the life of me get a good seal on this. It either leaks from the sides of the Bung or from where the thermowell attaches. I have tried Candlewax to hopefully seal it up some, but that didnt seem to help much. The Bung itself is a harder rubber like plastic (Like TPE if you ever 3d Printed) and like others have said, the hole for the bubbler is TINY. I had to jam my PLAATO in there, and i cannot get an accurate reading from that at all.
At a loss. I really like the idea, but i think it needs some work.

Best thermowell
Works great with my plastic fermenter and carboy. Has to get an S bubbler to fit with the Thermowell. But it works great.
