My buddy made this mash tun with this spigot, anyone see any issues with it?

Most people use a ball valve but I don't see why that valve would not work.

Maybe it would get clogged with grain bits but I doubt it.
 
Thanks, I'm going to try it out tonight, I put a hose barb on the end and it flows pretty well
 
Might want to pickle that brass first. I know brass is cheap, but SS ball valves can be had pretty cheap and don't need to be pickled, easier to open/close and less likely to leak.
