Need some help from the neighborhood

[bbwbfan]

I keep getting juice pooled in the silver cup that the RM2 connects into. I cleaned my Reo and water flowed freely from the silver cup and out the plastic tube so I know that is not the problem. I'm watching when I squonk so I'm not getting to much juice on the ceramic part. My wick does not prevent juice from going back down....I'm at a loss and don't know what to do to solve this problem. I'm hoping my friendly neighbors in Reoville can help me out.

Have you tried putting the o ring in the catch cup that came with your RM2?

Some folks get some leakage and this will fix it right up as well as letting you adjust air hole postition of your RM2.

This is where my o ring is.

I'm not understanding. Are you saying you are getting juice in the REO's 510 connection? You can see juice pooled in it when you unscrew the RM2, is that what you mean? If so, that's a non-issue. If I have juice in there when I take the RM2 off, I just dab it out with a paper towel in my general cleaning of the REO. If the RM2 is on it, I could care less if there is a bit of juice in there. It doesn't leak anywhere because of the oring in the catch cup.

yep...my bottle tube is all the way to the bottom! Great question! I'm going to cut it now. I'll see if that helps. thanks!

Some connectors sit a little higher than others .... Might be you need a little thicker O-ring if its filling your catch cup.

But you said the silver thing and your catch cup is black .... Hmm

Do you mean juice in the connector (threaded area) ?? Because that is normal and should not be an issue.

This o ring should solve your problem

Yep thicker O-ring will fix ya up

 

[Justice]

Or in a pinch if you dont have one handy a couple wraps of teflon tape on the atty threads will work

 

[Matthee]

Some people just use the o ring that's in the cap of their spare bottle, it's thicker.

I've been using a o-ring on the outside of my cyclone to keep the juice from leaking out of the catch cup. It's been working for me.

Thanks everyone. Im not having anymore leaking issues. It was getting annoying to have my juice leaking. Problem solved by cutting a smal snip off the end of my juice tube. Reoville is the best!!

Teflon tape can break down with certain juices. I've seen it first hand.

I use the yellow cased stuff for natural gas it seems to hold hop good and its easier to work with
