Hello,

I have to keep filling my doser containers. Is there a way I can turn my BRS 1 gallon jugs into the doser container?

maybe drill a hole ? How could I keep the line to the bottom? Or is there another solutioN like Getting new containers.

thanks
 
you can essentially do the same thing folks do w/ other water bottles


I use the voss bottles :)

As noted above with the voss bottles, and also with the note above from Potatohead and the BRS video. They use the John Guest connector and 1/4" acrylic tube or hose. Either will work. Some add a reverse check valve on the top for a vent. I use a small drill bit and make a hole. Either will work. Depending on what you are dosing you may need to adjust the tube or acrylic rod inside the container since some will break down due to the contents (for example acrylic and NoPox).
 
Good stuff! Thanks I found the BRS ones
