This yeast collection container fits the 27 and 55 Liter FermZillas and is primarily used for collection and addition of hops and yeast via the butterfly valve. This collection container can also be used for yeast starters meaning that you can create the yeast starter in this collection container directly then attach to the valve of the FermZilla so you can pitch yeast without needing to open the lid.
The ports on the side of this collection container are the same as a standard coke bottle or soft drink bottle. The threads are designed to suit the carbonation caps C35 and D80. These carbonation caps will enable you to purge oxygen for dry hopping, attach carbonation stone and carbonate liquid in the FermZilla, oxygenate wort and more.

Q: What is the temperature rating of the collection jar? The plastic is different from the upper body so I am assuming (probably incorrectly) it can hold a higher temperature?
A: According to the Kegland website: "Both lid and body can handle boiling wort."
Always Satisfied with Williams Brewing
Came on time and as expected. Just needed to replace the original jar, as one of the ports broke off at the threading.
Collection Jar
Fits just like the original!
