I have 3 fresh keggles that I just finished polishing to a mirror finish. I am going to be drilling the holes, nippling them. and soldering in the couplers tomorrow as follows:
Mash Tun
HLT
Boil
Any insight or any pointers that any veteran keggle (or non keggle) brewers have would be greatly appreciated..
Thanks,
Alex.
Mash Tun
HLT
- Whirpool arm
-Mounted at the highest point in the keggle
-For filling with water, and recirculating the water to ensure even temperature.
- Top and bottom compression fittings for copper HERMS coil
- center pickup tube
- 4500W Heating coil
- Level tube
- PT100 temp sensor for PID controller
Boil
- Whirpool arm
-Mounted at the highest point in the keggle
-For filling with water, and recirculating the wort through the HERMS coil (ice water) after the boil, and to whirlpool.
- center pickup tube
-I am thinking about cutting the length a little and mounting it a little higher so it's off center, this should allow me to whirpool the cooled wort.. this is the biggest question I have.. Does anyone have any suggestions on where to mount this to get the best whirlpool, and how to modify the center dip tube to be a side one? - 4500W Heating coil
- Level tube
- PT100 temp sensor for PID controller
Any insight or any pointers that any veteran keggle (or non keggle) brewers have would be greatly appreciated..
