Brew Day II…first problem…

As I said in an earlier post, the brewing went great.  The new campstove worked great except when flames shot out the front of the control knob.  LOL

However, as the title says, I have encountered a problem.  I use a spigot that I screw into the bottom of the fermentation barrels to ferment in.  Last time, I had no problem with that.  This time, I’ve got a leak.  It’s a drip, and a slow one at that, but 6 weeks of dripping could deplete my entire stock of beer.  This would be very bad.  I’ve tried using silicone caulking to seal it up, but it’s not working.

I’m afraid that my only solution will be to do a transfer of the fermenting wort into my spare bucket, which I can test before doing the transfer.  We’ll see.  I’ve got my best minds thinking about what I can do.  :)  We’ll see what we all come up with.  :)
