Description

  • Oxygen-Free Dry Hopping: Designed to allow dry hopping without exposing the batch to oxygen.
  • Customizable with Accessories: Features undrilled ports for optional accessories such as the Temp Twister Cooling Coil and Thermowell, enhancing functionality and convenience.
  • Improved WiFi Reading: The plastic lid improves KegLand RAPT Pill WiFi reading, ensuring better connectivity.
  • Compatible with all Kegmenter Fermentation Kegs with 4" Tri-Clamp ferrule.

The Hop Bong is a versatile pressurizable tri-clamp accessory, capable of not only dry hopping oxygen purged hops into fermenters, but also as an inline carbonation/oxygenation accessory. Load up the Hop Bong, flush it with CO2, purge out oxygen with the handy PRV on top, then simply open the Butterfly Valve to inject your beer with a 6 oz payload of dry hops.

This kit includes the 4" T.C. Pressure Lid to fit the tri-clamp ferule on Kegmenter Fermentation Kegs. The plastic lid also allows for improved KegLand RAPT Pill WiFi reading compared to the Kegmenter fully encasing the Pill in stainless steel.

Due to the large 4" tri-clamp diameter, it is difficult to get higher pressures without leaking. Therefore we suggest using this up to 21 psi. The included Yellow PRV for the Pressure Lid is rated to 17 psi.

The 3 Pieces of the Hop Bong Pressure Pack:

  • Pressure Kit
    • ​The Pressure Kit includes two Ball Lock Caps for Gas & Liquid. The Liquid cap can be paired with the optional Floating Dip Tube and Filter Attachment. These pieces allow you to pressure transfer finished beer out of the fermenter into kegs or a bottling bucket, or you can carbonate and serve beer directly from the Kegmenter.
  • Tri-Clamp Pressure Lid
    • Replacing the standard lid with the Tri-Clamp Pressure Lid provides you with a 2" T.C. port at the top of your fermenter. This will give you an opening to add dry hops or other additions without needing to remove the entire lid. Take off the butterfly valve to add your yeast pitch, and when you're ready to add flavoring additions when fermentation is complete, drop them in oxygen-free via the Hop Bong. PCO1881 threaded ports are there for your Ball Lock Caps, as well as undrilled ports for an optional Thermowell and/or Temp Twister cooling coil.
  • Hop Bong 
    • Load up the Hop Bong and add CO2 to purge your hop charge of oxygen. This kit comes with a third Ball Lock Cap to introduce CO2 directly to the Hop Bong, as well as a pull ring PRV to release pressure and purge oxygen. Once you've flushed your hop charge with CO2, open the butterfly valve to inject your beer with up to 6 oz of hop pellets.

Hop Pellet Capacity: 150–180g (5.2–6.3 oz)

  • Kegmenter 4" T.C. Pressure Lid

I like everything in the kit but that darn plastic butterfly valve
I only have had the hop bong about a week, but it seems that it is going to work very well for me. I am using it with a Spike Flex+ and it fits perfectly. If I did my math right, there are no money savings by buying this kit over buying each part individually. So I highly recommend buying the individual parts and replacing the Kegland plastic butterfly valve with a regular 2" stainless steel one. The Kegland plastic butterfly valve is incredibly difficult to close and open. I added keg lube but it did not help. I replaced it with a stainless steel one from China which opens and closes so much easier. With the Kegland one, I was afraid that I might crack the plastic of the 4" to 2" reducer base while trying to open or close but I have no qualms using the stainless steel valve that opens and closes as it should.
