I have a 11kW 1/2 Barrel Sanke HLT. We are looking to move up to 20 gallon or possibly 1bbl batches. I really don't want to start from scratch with a bigger HLT so I was thinking about just tying another keg to the existing HLT.
Here is a chicken scratch drawing of the plumbing (sorry it's rotated, I know it won't work that way)
The S's are solenoid valves for HLT fill and drain to MLT. The pump is for stirring the HLT. I figured I would put in a few valves to isolate the second tank if I didn't need as much volume.
Anyone done anything like this or see any problems with it? I'm not sure I will get proper circulation to the second vessel...
