Hi, I have a pack of 48 hour turbo. Instructions say do not use an airlock.
Suppsedly this yeast acts so fast it would blow water out of an airlock
anyone with experience using turbo on ezcaps ?

thanks, Ron.

We've used 48 hour turbo to test the caps. The caps do just fine. However the 48 hour turbo yeast tends to wash out all the flavors.

thanks for the quick reply.
I'm only making Kilju, so flavor is not important.

During testing the 48 hour turbo finished in the EZ Capped bottles in under 24 hours with some finishing in about 12 hours, so don't be surprised if it goes a lot faster than you expected.
