I am new to home brewing and am in the process of collecting all of the equipment needed to make beer. I am looking in to making one of those DIY mash tuns (http://www.popularmechanics.com/home/how-to/g1580/how-to-build-your-own-home-brewing-mash-tun/), however some of the parts needed don't seem to be safe to use for food/drink. I went to my local Home Depot to pick up the ball valve but the inside of it is filled with some sort of lubrication that can't be healthy for you. It was a smaller home depot so maybe they don't sell food grade valves there.
Does anyone know where I can get a ball valve with no lubrication oil inside that is food grade? I would like to know if I can find it in stores with in the Edmonton (Alberta, Canada) area so that I don't have to pay for shipping. If I do end up having to ship it would have to be within Canada and close to me to minimize shipping charges.
Also, what else should I look for in a part when trying to keep things food grade?
