here is a pic of the whole assembly.
I've been heavily considering having a 4" triclamp welded to the bottom of my mash tun to use a triclamp to 1/2" NPT as a drain and then take off the triclamp to dump the grains. Bottom drains large enough for everything to dump out make cleanup SOOOO much easier.
Dude, that is a hellacious idea! How would you get around the false bottom? Maybe use a fancy manifold instead?
If you went this route, you could make a chute under the drain that you could direct into a bucket or trashcan. Sorta like a tippy dump, but without the tip!
With the hinged false bottoms that have a handle, and since there's no diptube on my setup, you can pull the false bottom up through the grain. With a bucket underneath it'd be as simple as pushing it down through the hole.
Sorry for the threadjack, can't wait to see this thing in operation I have a triclamp fetish, and this system is hot.
Heh-heh....heh-heh...you said you're pipe is only 2 inches....heh-heh...heh-heh....
Is this diagram correct? I don't understand why you have the two flow meters and valves in parallel.
