Two things that I haven't seen a "this is the best way to do this" regarding mounting heating elements to a kettle. Granted this is a pot, not a keg.
1. What configuration of o-rings (stock and bargainfittings) is the best? I've seen people say to use stock on outside and just the 1" lock nut on the inside, without orange o-ring inside...and I've also seen people saying ditch the stock one and use bargainfittings stuff both on inside, nothing on outside...then I've seen people say it leaks either way.
2. Ground to the heater element flange itself or the pot itself? I want the safest way...unless they're the same.
