Hi,
I'm completely new to this..
I have purchased a Bulldog Premium Cider Kit
Part one all fine. Followed all the steps exactly, and I'm now at the secondary fermentation stage. I am using a S30 Keg for this which I syphoned the cider into.
Firstly the barrel is not completely full with the cider. It's holding around 40 pints, and there is some space at the top.
I added the sugar, and left as said to do in the instructions.
The next day I cam home to dripping form the tap, which I discovered was because of build up of pressure. I opened the cap to let the pressure out, and this fixed the leaking.
How do I stop this?
How do I check/use the valve?
Is my cider ruined from opening the cap?
Any help or advice would be massively appreciated.
Cheers
Dan
