Setting Up the Wall Mounts

Wall Mounts are for 7.9G (30L) FastFerment ONLY. Use only the provided Wall Mounts
to hang your FastFerment. We cannot guarantee other parts that we haven't provided.
There's a Wall Mount video - www.FastBrewing.com
The lip of the Wall Mount (where the hole for the screws are) go to the OUTSIDE.

FastFerment)
IMPORTANT NOTE: Screwing the side insert bolts too tight will pop the insert out and ruin the wall mounting capabilities.
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, ll the FastFerment 1/2
way and place in the Wall Mounts before lling the whole thing to ensure you've
mounted them correctly. Once that's determined, your Wall Mounts are ready to
use.

Our Recommendations for Cleaning & Sanitizing Include:
Soak with PBW and Rinse
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 o with water if it is a high quality source.
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
