I can’t get the lid off my bucket!

[Invalid Stout]

Am I such a wimp? Is there a knack to getting lids off?

It's a new bucket, the ones with the red lid that Malt Miller sells.

I have a couple of tubs I fight to get the lids off too, drives me nuts. I'm thinking of on of these

Lightly sandpaper the gripper on outside edge of the bucket. A nail file works well (once you are in).

I reach across the lid and pull it up at the indent with as many fingers as I can fit, at the same time pushing down on the lid with my thumbs to bend the lid sharply back.

I do the same, but watch those fingernails !

I have a fermenterform the northern brewer white with a red top it takes a lot of effort to get the lid off but its the best fermenter I have ever used.

Happy brewing

I slide a screwdriver in sideways that is at a tangent to the rim and lever it up. Once it's started it's easy enough.I

If your worried sanitize the screwdriver
