Much of my wine making kit, I bought as a second hand package from someone who was having to give the hobby up to move into a old peoples home. Included with the kit was a pot of Vaseline and I'm now wondering if that might have had some purpose in the hobby? I have slight trouble with a FV tap spigot leaking slightly sometimes, would it help to smear some on threads? The half turn tap is rather tight to use, is it worthwhile smearing some on the shaft of the tap? The oddly shaped bung for the airlock of my 5gallon FV leaks slightly, worth smearing around the bung? The plastic lid of the FV is a very tight fit and even harder to remove - worth smearing some around the lip?
Any reasons not to?
