Hey guys - I just finally got my keggles cut and ready to go - so naturally I am already looking towards the next project.
While researching about some weldless fittings to put into the keggle I really liked the idea of having a thermometor - a ball valve - and a sight glass installed and was ready to place the orders.
Then I read that these can really cause havoc with an immersion chiller. Is this true? I have the standard 50' IC that I can't see us doing 10 gal batches without.
So I was concerned if it is possible to have the best of both worlds. If I put the bulkheads low enough will they not interfere with the IC? Or will, over time, the repeated use of the IC start to beat up the thermometor probe and the pickup tube?
Any info/advice would be greatly appreciated.
