I got a pony keg from the LHBS a few days back for like 15 bucks and did the conversion. I brewed in it on friday...however realized it needed a ball valve and such. Drilled my hole got a .5 inch bal valve and threaded piece along with a bolt type deal and a rubber gasket. I am a bit worried that rubber will degrade over time and it will get leaky. How do you guys seal these things typically..another idea I had was...just like a mashtun I was thinking of having a braided stainless hose in there to filter trub...anyone do this, or am I liable to clog that thing with trub?
