I added 3 2L bottles just in case a bucket crashes... and good thing. One bucket did crash. But its back producing after a restart from the others. I've had a lot of issues with the RGComplete precipitating and/or clumping. I have it boiling pretty good, so aeration is not the issue. All the cultures do it. But not when I use the Nano3600. That being said, I've produced more rots at greater densities than ever. I just have to clean/relpace the culture vessels more frequently.
