I'm in the planning process for a single tier, 3-keggle eHERMS build and could use a bit (well, actually, a ton of) advice. I was planning on putting sight glasses on all three vessels but just got to thinking, is it pointless (and possibly even a really bad idea) to put one on the MLT? I would imagine there might be issues with grains clogging it up and causing a really difficult mess to clean (which could of course lead to sanitation issues). And the only good reason for having one that I can think of is measuring strike water - and that can be done just as easily by noting how much is pumped from the HLT where it's heated.
So is there some reason I would want a sight glass on my MLT that I'm not thinking of or is it just a bad idea to put one on?
