I've been brewing for 2 years now and have made some tasties with extract brewing. I am looking into switching over to all grain and had someone donate a 36 gal industrial food grade stainless steel tank with a lid. There are 4 ports on the side that are some strange size more than 3/8 pipe less than 1/2 inch pipe. I am drilling these out and converting them to 1/2 pipe so they can be plugged or used for some other purpose. There is also a 1 1/4 inch pipe coming out about 3 inches above the bottom of the tank and another 1 1/4 inch pipe coming out of the bottom that I have plugged for now.
I guess my real question is how can I incorporate this tank into a brew rig and what else would you recommend? I am an industrial maintenance mechanic and have access to numerous stainless fittings, pipe, tubing etc.
