I went to "the Bruery" the other night for some yummy belgian-inspired brews. I showed the homebrew store to a homebrewing friend who promptly started salivating. They had a new airlock style: a rubber stopper-type except it was made out of silicone and had 5 or so holes drilled in the top. Then there was a silicon disk on top of that which made a tight seal against the holes. Lets gas out but no dust or fruit flies in. Anyone used one of these? I mostly use foil these days as a batch never sits more than two weeks before it's kegged.

Sounds like the silicone bung we used on our JD barrel aging projects. Got it from B3 several years ago.
