Great call on the ptfe gasket. I never thought of that. Just ordered a 10 pack from Amazon. Wish I could have just bought one from BrewHardware.com but 10 was cheaper with free shipping than just 1!

Yeah that would suck. I'd avoid pressurizing until that valve is closed!

Jar feel secure? I read a person or two that the jar didn't hold and it dumped the whole conical when the jar fell

Is that from Norcal brewing? I just ordered 3 spare sight glasses to do the same thing.

How is everyone cleaning their unitank? I have the spray ball (not micro) and powerful submersible utility pump. Works pretty well except doesn't do anything for getting hops and yeast out of the various tri clamp ferrules. And it missed a little bit of the ring on the sidewall, presumably...

Same here, I'd happily buy a 7g ss tank to complement my 14, but not at 899. It's definitely overpriced there. I'd pay 799 tops.

It is, outside. The inside of the valve is press fit with o rings for the racking cane itself.

Yes, worked fine. I did fear knocking the racking tube out though since it's just a push fit. I think next time I might use the dump valve instead.

Excellent, I'm glad it worked out!

I don't actually automate. I use the raspberrypi for PID and relay control but I still prefer to have manual override of most functions. That's why I have the buttons and switches under the touchscreen. This allows either automatic through the pi or manual control from the switches for the pumps...

I will still remove the valves and clean them. I just don't like fully taking apart the ball valves.

I have an all electric 20 gallon Herms system that I currently use Quick clean ball valves for. I have a total of 6 valves on the system two on the hot liquor tank two on the boil kettle, one on the mash tun output, and one on the mash tun top input port for recirculation. I don't love taking it...

This design followed my original plan. Here is the link to the photos including a newer version in the new brewery. https://photos.app.goo.gl/gMlsMIUMjWdAHbpg1

Everyone keeps asking for the pictures so I made a Google Photos album with all of them. I have also included the new brewerys through the wall system. Enjoy! https://photos.app.goo.gl/gMlsMIUMjWdAHbpg1

Very easily

Awesome! Just use a decent ratio of propylene glycol to water. I did 35% glycol to water. I had freezing problems with less glycol than that. I have found I need to be about 14 degrees F in the glycol reservoir to reach 33 degrees for a 6 gallon batch in the 14 gallon.

Correct, even confirmed with SSBrewtech before I ordered mine

Sure is!

BrewHardware.com has it. It's a 3/8" npt to 1/4" npt adaptor then the keg post adaptor. Then the ball lock post
