The Flex+ includes a tri-clamp rotatable racking arm as a standard item. This allows you to rotate the racking arm as you drain your Flex+. You’ll start draining in the upwards position and rotate until the beer stops running clear. The Flex+ comes with a racking arm that has an indicator so you can easily see what orientation the racking arm is at from the outside.

The Flex+ features a 4” tri-clamp welded onto the lid. Why? Modularity. This allows you to attach our drop in temp control coil, clear cap and allows for easy hop additions. Our temp control coil extends deep into the Flex so both full batches (5-6gal) and half batches (2.5-3gal) can be efficiently cooled. The 4” port also allows for unmatched simplicity when adding hops during your fermentation. Gone are the days of removing the entire lid which allows oxygen in and also opens the door for an infection.
