Blichmann Autosparge outlet connection?

[Bugaboo]

Looking into buying one of these. Problem is that I would really like to use the locline that I use now on the autosparge. How is the hose connected to one of these? Looks like a barb, but can't tell if it is a removable barb or not. If so, what size pipe thread is it?

The barb is not removable and is part of the shutoff mechanism. I wish it was removable so I can use 1/2" tubing.

I wanted to use a loc-line as well and hook it to an Autosparge. It's not a removable barb which meant I'd have to have a small length of hose between the Autosparge and the loc-line. Autosparge went back to the store. Love the loc-line.

What size barb does it have?

Thank you sir. I'd hate to not be able to use my locline. Looking into adjustable float switch and solenoid valve also.
