Has anyone here successfully installed a heater element to a keggle without having to weld a coupler? I have NO welding skills whatsoever and I just got a 5500w element for my keggle. I'm going to have to mount it sideways since it will stick out of the boiling wort if I put it in the bottom.
 
Thats how mine was set up before I welded couplers in . I used a 1" brass nut. and a O ring
 
McMaster has it for $5 plus change, also. 4464K583

Edit: Never mind. Wrong search criteria. Here are the correct ones:
304 Stainless Steel 4464K586 $14.14
316 Stainless Steel 4452K676 17.05
