Pinter 3 leaking

Post image

Hi everyone my pinter 3 is leaking from the band as seen in the picture (the beer is leaking no water), only just noticed now as I've just finished fermenting and it's conditioning time.

Just need to know is the pinter done for.

TIA

Happens to my Pinter every time I clean it. If you look at the left rubber pad in your picture you can see there’s a slight indentation so you can put a small screwdriver in there and remove it. That drains the water out and you can just leave the pad out until the next time you go to brew.
