Cleanliness should be the foremost concern of a homebrewer or winemaker. Providing good
growing conditions for the yeast in the wort or must also provides good growing conditions for
other microorganisms, especially wild yeast and bacteria. Cleanliness to prevent
contamination must be maintained throughout every stage of the brewing/winemaking
process.
Setting Up the Wall Mounts
RIGHT SIDE
(when looking at
FastFerment)
LEFT SIDE
(when looking at
FastFerment)
The lip of the Wall Mount (where the hole for the screws are) go to the OUTSIDE.
Step 1:
Determine the area where you will mount the
FastFerment
by locating two
adjacent wall studs. Wall studs are typically 16” (40.64 cm) apart, which is ideal
for the mounting system. You will need a stud for each
Wall Mount
.
Use the stand accessory if mounting is not possible.
Step 2:
For homebrewers who are bottling, mark a spot on each stud at 40” (101.6 cm)
in height. If you are kegging - mark spots at 52” (132.08 cm) in height.
Ensure the marks are exactly the same height to keep the unit level for mounting.
Step 3:
Line the top of each
Wall Mount
up with the line drawn on the stud. Make marks
in the 4 bolt holes in the
Wall Mount
for where you will screw in the
Wall Mount
Bolts
. Drill pilot holes and mount both
Wall Mounts
.
Step 4:
Hand tighten the two
Side Insert Bolts
into the side of the
FastFerment
until they
are snug. Do not over-tighten.
Step 5:
Before you put a full
FastFerment
in the
Wall Mounts
, fill the
FastFerment
1/2
way and place in the
Wall Mounts
before filling the whole thing to ensure you’ve
mounted them correctly. Once that’s determined, your
Wall Mounts
are ready to
use.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Screwing the side insert bolts too tight will pop the insert out and ruin the wall mounting capabilities.
Wall Mounts are for 7.9G (30L) FastFerment ONLY
.
Use
only
the provided
Wall Mounts
to hang your
FastFerment
.

FastFerment parts have not been cleaned prior to shipping.
PBW (Powdered Brewery Wash) is gentle, alkali-based cleanser used to remove dust and debris
before brewing and stubborn deposits after brewing. Soak all parts with PBW and use a soft
cloth to assist. Rinse off with water if it is a high quality source.

Cleaning & Sanitizing
Soak with PBW and Rinse
Our Recommendations for Cleaning & Sanitizing Include:
Spray with StarSan Sanitizer
Use sanitizer at a rate of 1oz (30ml) in 5 US gallons (18.9L) of water. Apply by spray or soak
each part with a contact time of at least 5 minutes. Empty or drain the parts and let air dry.
All parts and equipment should be reassembled wet after being sanitized to minimize
contamination. DO NOT RINSE SANITIZER OFF.
