I am wanting to get a weldless bulkhead/valve and diptube setup for my keggle.
How difficult and time consuming would it be to switch the positioning of a dip tube in the kettle on brew day?
Say I only have 1 kettle (a keggle) and I want to use it to heat my strike/sparge water and also use it as a boil kettle.
For the strike/sparge water, I would want the dip tube to pull from the center of the kettle and from the very bottom.
For draining the boil kettle, I would want to use it as a side pickup (post-whirlpool).
Would it be difficult to switch this orientation after my sparge water is heated and drained?

Then switch to this:
