Jay,
I am looking for a part to convert a morebeer racking cane from 53 gallon barrels to be able to use it for smaller bung 25 gallon barrels.

Jay,
What are the odds that you have ever made a shelf like such for a 14G conical

Yes I have rough specs as of now, could send a rendering but what would a 12.5" square of SS with maybe cut corners to match the contour of the legs and four holes run. Just not sure if the SS BrewTech plate is being severely marked up
The solution was right in front of me the (w)hole time...
The hole was sized for 1/2" NPT, so it only makes sense a 1/2" NPT plug would close it up.... a silicone gasket and a nut sealed the deal. Derp.
Was thinking recently about a stainless steel valve solution for a Fermonster. The plastic is so thin it's probably difficult to replace the plastic spigot for the ported versions but would help in terms of sanitation.
Any ideas?

I can do 3/4" TC extension tube 6" long with a 1/2" connection tubing. Super simple.

I really like the looks of MoreBeer's Ultimate Sparge Arm, however the spacing of the bracket doesn't work for me, as my Botton-drain Insulated Mash Tun is too wide.
Would it be possible to fabricate just the stainless tubing / sparge device? If so, I could probably work up the bracket.

You bet. Looks STOOPID simple! do you want 1/2" MNPT threads on the top?
Cheers

Could you do one extra 90 degree bend at the top and add either a 3/4" or 1" Tri-clamp?
that would work. im pretty sure there are valves that go 3/4 to 1.5TC. can get me where i need to be.

I sell them. They aint cheep but we do have them.

Of course. Want to shoot me a few measurements? Drop, length INTO the kettle and then yeah I can do 3/4" TC on a 90* at the top as well for sure.

Do you mean the yeast harvester? 2" TC?
Yeah for sure

thats why i was hoping to use the tube as the adapter to go from 3/4tc to 1.5tc. pipe diameter of 1/2" is fine, doesnt need to change, only the TC size change is what i'm after so i can stop fiddling with the small guys and get back to normal 1/1.5 TC fittings.

How about a tri clamp spool, 1" ferrules on each end, 1" tube, and 2" long
OP
OP
So 1" and 1.5" TC are the same size cap.
Just to be clear you want a spool 2" long with 1" pipe and 1.5" TC caps for the connections?
Absolutely!

Yes thanks. How well do you think it would hold mounted horizontaly instead of vertically?
Jaybird,
Got the part from you yesterday, and it looks GREAT!!! :rockin: ...
If I made another, I'd make the lower tube about 2" shorter, but this one will work fine. Working on the attaching arm and sparge switch now.
Many Thanks for the great work.
Cheers!!
Not homebrewing related yet(once I get over there it may be) but we have a house in France being renovated and my wife wants a wall mounted pot filler faucet over the stove. Problem is that there are no pot fillers sold in France so she's looking at buying one here and taking it over there. She's looking for an adapter, male on each end and not too long, to convert US 1/2 inch to whatever size and thread is code in France. Doable?

Sure. I just need you to get me the pipe size and thread and I can see if I can find a nipple in the states. Cut them in half and WELD them together.

Ive been thinking about this for a while and should be easy for you to put out. similar to this picture but with a handle so you could add it in after the whirlpool.
now the catch, it would need to fit over an element on one side and the handle would need to be a custom size so I can still put the lid on but be above the wort

Hey Jay
How much would it be to make a male and female camlock connector to 1/4" MFL, 3/8" barb, or 1/4" barb?
Thanks

Whats the Diameter? kind of material? Height? Shoot me a pict. I can do that.
Cheers
Jay
this is kind of what I was thinking, maybe the scraps from your false bottoms would work unless you have lighter material
OP

How big an opening for that element? and is the element going to go ALL the way across so openings on BOTH sides directly across form each other?
