My primary fermentation bin came with no airlock. At the time I was told that this was a problem so I added one myself, since then I have read many things suggesting that an airlock is not necessary. All you need to do is leave the lid on without sealing it, just resting it on top loosely. For my first brew I left the lid on loosely for about 48 hours and then closed it to let the airlock do the work (during this time I witnessed no airlock activity). The brew is still conditioning so i'm not sure how it is gone, but to cut to the chase, I was just wondering how people feel about airlocks and what they do when they brew.
