I am planning on buying the Hurricane NG burner and stand from Williams brewing and I have a question regarding the adapter for NG. Do I really need this or is it just as easy to drill out the orifice to NG size(I am reading 1\8")? The adapter on their site looks like a complete shutoff valve, but I do not see this installed anywhere in the pics of people who have this setup. Does anyone with this setup have pics they could post so I can see how this looks when fully setup? Any other details would be much appreciated.

Thanks, Scott...
 
See my link in the first page for some pictures of my burner with the NG valve/orifice. I believe it is just the standard LP on drilled out to 1/8".

I saw that, but I guess I just didn't look close enough. So the adapter is installed in the end of the burner and then you just installed the hose with QD to the adapter. It is just a lot smaller than it looks in the pic on the WB site. Can you use that shutoff valve on the adapter to adjust the flame or do you use your main ball valve? (Nevermind!)

Also, I noticed the adapter is only 3\8". I wanted to go with 1\2" on everything. Would I have to buy some sort of adapter for that as well?

Thanks again, Scott...
 
The valve has a nipple that screws into the body of the burner. The mini ball valve is pretty handy for adjusting flame height although I use mine full blast pretty much all the time. The charbroil hose I bought screwed right into the valve body but if you wanted a larger hose you would just need a reducer.
