Update: I could not find anything at the local Ace, HD, or Lowes that would remotely work. I bought the kit from my post above. I will update to let anyone know if this works with the larger diameter for anyone that buys the new coolers.

Upgrading my old mash tun to a new 10 gallon Igloo (home depot) cooler. I was going to use my old fittings, but the hole size of the new Home Depot coolers are 1". Went to the depot and lowes to look for fittings, but no luck. I came across this which may be worth buying...

Not at all. Stored outside normal side up for over a year, seriously no issues whatsoever. Might have displaced it a little, but not too sure. As it happened with both containers my theory is that they simply don't like to be stored upside down. All grain brewing in small apartment problems...

It is definitely from the weight of whatever is in the storage container on the gasket lid creating a small gap to allow moisture in. With them standing upright there is no issue of the gasket being crushed and deformed.

Ideally they would be stored inside, but I moved to a smaller apt with not so much indoor space...

Good to know that it was close! Even if it's not exactly Limbo, it's still going to be pretty darn tasty. I will also move the chinook to the dry hop.

I just went straight off their website and taste. All I know is that this stuff STINKS (In a good way), Just blasts you with Aussie hops. Didn't have any wheat malt on hand so I left it out. I am also curious how much they really put in. Let me know how the kidnapping goes :D And we can all...

With ski season coming to a close I won't be up in VT as much this summer and want to enjoy some Limbo at home. Here is my first attempt at this recipe. Let me know if you like, love it, hate it. (NOTE: The 1 min additions are added at flameout and whirlpooled for 15 min. I always put them in...
