Thanks!! Actually I wouldn't mind letting you borrow it at all. Orange county right? I will add a sight glass at a later date for sure.

Ouch!

Why?

Thank you!! I would love to do a single tier setup! As of now i do not have a pump so i will probably just do a few batches using gravity. Upgrade later. I did also just snag a third keg. Any suggestions??

And this is what i got so far! I also customized an old turkey fryer burner to accommodate the size of the keg. Ill throw pics of that up later.

The finished product. Stainless steel hinges and bolts all purchased from Westmarine. Noticed just recently that the dip tube does not reach the center of the keg. In order for the tube to go down through the hole on the false bottom, it has to be just barely resting on the compression...

I am having the hardest time finding scrap remnants of perforated stainless! I'm a huge fan of DIY projects and I want to make a false bottom myself. Any suggestions? Not super excited about drilling a million holes into the sheet metal that I already have. :)
