The pressure relief valve should stay open if you want to use your iGulu F1 Kegs for fermentation projects that require constant air exposure, such as Kombucha. 

This handy little gadget does just that. Pull the pressure relief valve up, snap on your printed clamp, and it remains open as long as you leave it there. It is designed with just the proper tolerances to firmly snap onto the pressure relief valve and keep it up as much as possible - while trying to avoid unnecessary strain on the mechanism. Printing is very easy and fast, and I find them super helpful.
