Cleanliness should be the foremost concern of a homebrewer or winemaker. Providing good  
growing conditions for the yeast in the wort or must also provides good growing conditions for 
other microorganisms, especially wild yeast and bacteria. Cleanliness to prevent 
contamination must be maintained throughout every stage of the brewing/winemaking 
process. 

 

 

          

 

 

Setting Up the Wall Mounts 

RIGHT SIDE 

(when looking at 

FastFerment)

LEFT SIDE 

(when looking at 

FastFerment)

The lip of the Wall Mount (where the hole for the screws are) go to the OUTSIDE.

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

, fill the 

FastFerment 

1/2

 

way and place in the 

Wall Mounts

 before filling the whole thing to ensure you’ve

 

mounted them correctly. Once that’s determined, your 

Wall Mounts 

are ready to

 

 use.

IMPORTANT NOTE:  Screwing the side insert bolts too tight will pop the insert out and ruin the wall mounting capabilities.

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.

Cleanliness should be the foremost concern of a homebrewer or winemaker. Providing good

other microorganisms, especially wild yeast and bacteria. Cleanliness to prevent 
contamination must be maintained throughout every stage of the brewing/winemaking

FastFerment parts have not been cleaned prior to shipping. 

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 off with water if it is a high quality source. 

FastFerment Set Up - 

Cleaning & Sanitizing

Soak with PBW and Rinse

Our Recommendations for Cleaning & Sanitizing Include:

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 
contamination. DO NOT RINSE SANITIZER OFF.
