I want to convert this 56 gallon stainless steel vat I just acquired into a boiling kettle. It has a 1 1/4 welded threaded pipe flush to the bottom of the kettle. I bough an appropriate 1.5" tri-clover adapter but don't know what to do on the inside.
I'm concerned of leaving it as is and having too much protein, cold break, hop residue, etc leaving the kettle and into my chiller. I could whirlpool, but I don't know if the size of the port would suction too much stuff out.
Any suggestions? Or am I overthinking it?
