Leaks on first use

Leaks on first use. As I continued to brew the leak stopped, but I wasn't sure if it was the high sugar content of the 11% beer I brewed that was causing the leak to stick together. Let's test it with water to make sure it stops. The company sent 4 o-rings and no instructions, but I believe it was similar to other temp probes I've used and set up this way. If the leak persists, you should get a thicker o-ring and see if that stops the leak.

Pros
  • Wide range
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
