I am picking up a keg this weekend that I will be using for a boil kettle. At the moment I am going to be using propane and mashing in a cooler.
However I plan to eventually turn this into a electrical boil keggle controlled with a PID and all that jazz and get separate keggles for HTL and MLT.
Other than the ball valve I plan on putting in the bottom. Is there anything I should or should not do to eventually prepare this for the electrical conversion.
As in if i put in a port for a thermometer will I be able to use the same port for the temp probe when I want to hook it up to a PID. Or should I not drill a port for a thermometer now if I intend to change over "soon" (eventually.)
The final plan is to make a HERMS setup but to be able to brew between now and the ending point.
