Ok didn't think this through before i did it.
I recently started mashing in a keggle. I use a full false bottom and recirculate with a march pump if i need to fire for temp maintenance. I batch spare for now since i only have one pump. I have been slowly adding parts to my system as i go. I added a themometer recently with one of the no weld kits from bargainfittings. I installed it too high. Its only under my grain bed when Im mashing for a 10 gallon bash. So i need to relocate the thermometer lower and find another use for this hole. I still need to rig a return for the recirculation as i was just going over the top with the hose. Now, how to use this hole that is below the grain bed some of the time as a return. I guess my plan would be to add another bulkhead and valve there. Its the inside that im wondering. How about a elbow with a section of silicone hose and a way to diffuse it so im not channeling the grain bed. The silicone tubing could also allow an easy way to adjust it when im mashing smaller or larger batches. Will this work?
