Blichmann Brew easy compact - Tri-Clamp G2 Linear Flow Valve with rotating dip tube

Thanks for sharing. Just to buy the attachments are pretty expensive. I was going to purchase the flow meter and right now it's selling for $100.00. Might have to wait for prices to drop when this system is a year or 2 old to make purchases for the gadgets that I want. Cheers!

Thank you and I've been really thinking how it would be awesome if all, the All-in-One systems starting offering some sort of devices to help you measure your flow rate on recirculation as that would help contribute to being able to do repeatable brews compared to the current "Eye Balling it" measuring system.

I just bought a new Megapot 1.2 15 gallon kettle. It is undrilled and I am contemplating how best to have it setup. I hadn't considered having Triclover ferrules welded in it, but now I am after seeing your setup. How do you decide on what your kettle geometry should be? I thought it might make for an insightful bit of content on your YT site. Thoughts?

Take a look at the info on Blichmann's site where they make recommendations based on location and then you can even do a customize on one of their pots to get a better understanding. www.blichmannengineering.com/boilermaker#customize Also, if you already purchased the kettle, I wouldn't recommend the Triclover, unless you are already invested into those. I'd go with NPT as it will probably cost you a lot less and be a lot easier to simply have wholes drilled (or drill them yourself if you are up to it). Most NPT will have an o-ring and nut for the inside or a type of flange to help seal it with the outside device.

@@BitterRealityBrewing I was thinking doing it myself with weldless fittings before, those usually need 7/8" (22.5mm) holes and you can get a round hole punch to make clean holes in stainless for about $25 on Amazon. Just thought it might be a good idea to contemplate a whirlpool, except I also want to accommodate a 33cm brew basket, so you have to really limit the "Sticky outey" stuff, like thermocouples and heating elements. It would be less likely to leak if it were welded, so I thought about having brewhardware estimate the job before I toss the packing boxes. If ya'll wonder why I am reckoning specs in metric, it's because most of the parts come from Amazon and China, and you have to search using their terms. Sucks, but necessary. 😁
