Hey guys,
I'm almost done buying all my equipment and ready to brew, when I looked at my megapot this morning and realized the bulkhead was about an inch (going from memory here) above the bottom of the kettle. I did some research and found that this is pretty common and that I should probably install some kind of dip tube / pickup tube.
The threaded coupling in my megapot bulkhead is 1/2" so I was looking at ordering either of these 2 from bargainfittings.com.

I kind of prefer the dip tube kit, since I think I can position it closer/further away from the bottom as needed, and keep it close to the sides away from the center.
What do you guys think? Are there better options?
Julian
