I love my Pinters, but I tried a Craft A Brew kit. My cork keeps popping out of my carboy. Could I use a Pinter as my fermenter and condition in the Pinter instead of bottling?
I take it you are referring to your airlock; if it keeps slipping out, you can use a clean paper towel to wipe away the wet sanitizer. Dry bungs stay in place better, and the paper towel gets sanitized as it soaks up sanitizer. But yes, you should be able to treat a craft a-brew recipe much like a Pinter kit with the coverage that there will be more sediment from the fresh grain and hops. So get the Pinter cold before disconnecting the Docker, and let any sentiment that might remain in the Pinter settle in the fridge before serving.
At least you were lucky and not needed to go through the first versions of the pinters and taps
Luck has little to do with it. They didn't sell them in the US till November of 2023. However, I only gave it a shot because it had previous versions.

@ thanks for the advice. Should I condition in the refrigerator for a couple of weeks before serving?
Yes
@ thank you very much.
