So you guys are saying that I should just buy nice new shiny ones, eh? BargainFittings ordering time on Monday!

The more threads I checked out, the more methods I saw. I figured I should throw mine into the mix

There are a 1000 threads about this, but none answered my issue quickly enough. So if you have a leaky bulkhead, see if your experience matches up to mine. I had bought a weldless bulkhead fitting off of MidwestSupplies about a year ago. Attempting to install it always resulted in a small...

Hey folks, I'm ready to buy a whole lot of fittings from Bargainfittings.com, but first wanted to see if anyone had extra parts lying around they would be willing to sell. I need the following, and the price from BF new is: 1/2 Camlock B Females X 9 ($5.50) 1/2 Camlock F Males X 9...

No pics of the chest freezer and basement!? That's only half the house!

Is the thick walled much better? It kinda sounds like the holy grail of tubing.

Nice deals guys, thanks!

I have no idea about your question, but someone will know for sure and share. In the meanwhile, it sounds like you've done this a lot. Have you had some interesting comparisons? Any never agains or huge succeses?

I had never thought about cutting out the bottom instead of the top. How do you have your kettles seated during brew day?

It looks like your HLT drains out the bottom. How does that function? You've got a whirlpool tube in your HLT and BK, but they go in different directions. Have you found one direction whirlpool is better than the other? Or am I just thinking of a toilet myth.

I'm assuming you whirlpool, and allow the trub to settle. How's the braid been for keeping hop debris out? Any issues with something like a pellet hopped IPA? If it works fine, that looks super easy and cheap to implement.

McMaster seems to be more money than either BF or AHS, though it has so many options I could have easily missed something.

I've been watching ebay the past few days, but no hits so far. I'll definitely check out mcmaster, though I think that is priced similarly.

That looks beautiful! Where did you find that black tubing and cross bar?

I know that we are each creative geniuses in our own way, but it's always fun to see what everyone else is doing too. Post some pictures of the inside of your MashTun, HLT, and Boil Kettles. That way we can steal... ahem, adapt, your genius to ours!

Hey folks, I got these QDs off of another HBT member who lovingly cared for them. Without using them once, I realized I am going to go a completely different route on my system. Therefore, I am selling 6 sets of McMaster QDs, part numbers 6739K59 and 6739K68. I'll sell all 6 sets...

Hey folks, I was wondering if people had recommendations for the cheapest and best places to buy 1/2" silicone tubing. Please post suggestions for best deals. AHS seems to have it for $2.10 plus SH Bargain Fittings seems to have it for $2.40 plus SH

Bump

Did you end up deciding on a grain bill? I'm starting to wrap my brain around a recipe for this as well.

I'm in some serious need of bottles in West Chester, PA. I'll happily drive into Philly for them. Please let me know! Cheers.
