Customizable Bubbler airlock

prusaprinters

<p>This is a simple "bubbler" style dual-chamber airlock for home brewing.</p> <p>Note: still having trouble with getting prints to reliably hold liquid. I'm pretty sure it'll work if I print in PETG, but with PLA it's giving me trouble.</p> <p>Update 2017-09-10: a new cider season is here so I've had a chance to do more testing and tweaking. Adjusted the model a bit for a "flatter" shape and tested with PETG. So far, natural PETG with 5 perimeters and 6 top layers at 50% infill seems to be holding up to primary fermentation pressures. YMMV.</p> <h3>Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer Brand:</strong></p> <p>RepRap</p> <p class="detail-setting printer"><strong>Printer: </strong> <div><p>Makerfarm i3v 8</p></div> <p><strong>Rafts:</strong></p> <p>No</p> <p class="detail-setting supports"><strong>Supports: </strong> <div><p>No</p></div> <p><strong>Resolution:</strong></p> <p>0.2mm</p> <p class="detail-setting infill"><strong>Infill: </strong> <div><p>50%</p></div> <p><strong>Notes:</strong></p> <p>Natural PLA. Use at least 5 perimeters, and print the airlock upside down with 5-6 top layers to ensure the bottom holds liquid.</p> </p></p></p> Category: Kitchen & Dining
