I ordered the conversion kit. Thanks for sourceing it for me man! I really hope it fits! My mash tun has a false bottom. Do you think I should get mesh as well or will the false bottom be enough?

They only seem to have options for a rubbermaid or an igloo one and I have a mash king.

I have one final step to complete before I can do my first all grain batch and that is figuring out what I need to order to attach my line to my mash tun. My line is silicon and has an ID of 1/2". I already have a compatible clamp too. The mashtun in question is a mash king mashtun and it had a...

My first food grade silicon line and clamps! I'm almost ready to brew my next batch!

My lines and clamps came today and thanks to you all, THEY FIT! I just wanted to thank you all at helping me complete my boil kettle. As soon as I figure out everything with my mashtun I'm good to go! Thanks again everyone!

A bottle filler and an aquarium pump. Getting very close to my first all grain batch!

Thanks for the help! I'll order and try to install it ASAP. Which way is the right way to wrap the tape?

The third one, the one for the hose and clamp, can I just order that and attach it and then order 1/2" ID silicon tubing and I'm good to go? Will I need Teflon tape to attach it?

You are correct, it says 1/2 above 304. The valve inside could be 1/2 an inch but I think the ID is .8-.9 of an inch, at least at the opening. I really know nothing about plumbing though like I said but I don't think this company would make a boil kettle that was not compatible with common parts.

Thanks for posting, it really helps. I'm not good with plumbing/ pipe fitting. The ID of the valve is .8" (.9 if I include the threading). I understand now that I need to attach something into the valve and then attach my line to that piece, but I have no idea what piece I need to order. I found...

I measured the thickest point on my boil kettle's vavle and it is just over 1.1". I have no idea what to attach to the valve or if I should just get a bigger line that is over 1.1" and clamp it on every time?

If I wanted to do a Kölsch or a hefeweizen would 60 still be ok?

It looks like the final step for me to take before I do my first all grain batch is just getting and finding a way of easily attaching my lines to my mash tun and to my boil kettle. It would really help if you could show me some pictures of how you all do it. Thanks!

Will EVA barrier lines make the beer taste off at all or are they just all around they best for lines?

Great information guys! I think I'll skip it altogether and just do 90 min mashes unless 60 would be fine?

Thanks. Do you use it yourself or just skip it?

I was not aware of this. Since Silicone is oxygen permeable does that mean that bacterial can actually get though? What is the best material for lines then?

I thought that finding iodine on amazon would be simple but there seem to be a lot of different kinds. What is the right one for checking to see if I'm done mashing at an hour in? Thanks!

Thanks! That's exactly what I'm looking for! PET plastic is carcenagenic so I'm trying to do everything with food grade material. Personally I'm just pretty paranoid about coming into contact with plastics when it comes to beer production.

Hey everyone, I'm trying to make sure that all of my lines and everything that my beer will pass through is made from foodgrade plastic that is not vinyl or PET plastic. I already have a bottle filler but it's a cheap one so I'm pretty sure it is not food grade. If someone could point me in the...
