It seems like a great idea, but it also seems a complicated affair at the same time. I have been thinking about getting a weldless set-up for my keggle but I have some reservations. Right now I am siphoning and I guess I have decided it is not that bad. Other than troubles keeping the siphon going at times, flow rate and clogging...
The idea of just opening the ball valve and draining into my carboy seems so easy. Then when I start reading about the MANY set-ups folks have created it seems there are a whole new slew of problems to overcome with this method. Namely filtering out trub and hops and clogging, flow rate issues and siphon issues!!!
So I guess what I am wondering is if I go with a valve am I really just trading one set of headaches (siphoning issues) for a new set of problems.
Is it worth the money?
