Has anyone used Weld-B-Gone bulkhead fittings to attach a ball valve on a 15 gal Keg? Is this a good alternative to welding?
Thanks,

Not really. You use a pickup tube inside to siphon the wort off the bottom. Here's a pic of the inside of my MLT to give you an idea. My brew kettle doesn't have the false bottom in there, but otherwise it's just about the same.Is there a specific location from the bottom of the keg it should be located?

e lo said:Those of you who use the pickups to siphon out of your brew "keggles," (i.e. Lil' Sparky ) how do you keep from racking over all the trub to your fermenter? I'm in the planning stages of converting at the moment.
Thanks!

Yes it is.e lo said:Ok, I'll bite. FSR, what's that downstream of your kettle? CFC?
How right you are.Lil' Sparky said:It's a leaky CFC if I recall correctly.
