I just added a 1/2" stainless bulkhead to my brewpot. With the pot sitting level, it'll drain all but 1 1/2" worth of wort from the pot. I was thinking I could drain most of that last 1.5" by adding a 90 degree elbow that connected to the inflowing end of the bulkhead and bent down to nearly touch the bottom of the brewpot. However, only material I could find to attach the correct fitting size to the bulkhead was brass. Then I got to thinking the acidic nature of the wort would react with any brass material. Am I correct in this thinking? Any other ideas on what to use? I couldn't find any 90 degree elbows that were stainless at the hardware store.
Thanks.
Thanks.
