Was thinking about trying a basic turbo cider in a 5litre water bottle but don't have a bung and airlock. I could try and lash up something with tubing, but was wondering if I could do without and just release the CO2 periodically by cracking the screw top?
Thanks

Ahh the old prison hooch method.

Should work though.
I would make a little hole in the lid then just bung it up with some cling film scrunched into a ball, will let pressure escape but should stop anything getting in.
