Overview
Built to transform steam into liquid during the boil, the Spike Steam Condensing Lid (SCL) lets you brew inside without worrying about moisture collecting on your walls and ceiling, which can cause mold issues. The SCL also easily replaces going through the trouble of installing a hood for indoor brewing.
These lids are not only designed to fit Spike kettles but will also work with most other kettle brands on the market.
Compared to boiling without a lid, our SCL has a 50% reduced boil-off rate and results in a ~6% total boil-off.

Brew Indoors
Whether you’re in your basement, garage or kitchen, it’s nice to know you won’t be battling the elements on Brew Day. But once inside, the new battle becomes steam. The SCL captures steam by using a misting nozzle to convert it back into liquid that can be captured.
No Hood Needed
A common way to deal with steam in your indoor brewery was an exhaust hood. The SCL is less expensive, quieter and doesn’t require any reconstruction of your house. Ditch the exhaust hood!
4” Tri-Clamp Port
During boiling, you’re going to be adding hops. If you're an IPA drinker, you’re probably adding a lot of hops. That’s why we added a large 4” port to the top of the lid. The 4” tri-clamp port comes standard with our clear cap. Simply pop this cap off and add your hop additions! The clear cap also allows you to see when you have a perfect rolling boil.
