Keggle owners: What size is your opening on top?

[kal]

Hi guys,

I'm in the process of designing something new and want to make sure it'll work for most keggle owners, so I have question:

What's the diameter of the hole you cut in the top of your keggle?

Thanks!

Kal

P.S. I'm an equal opportunity employer and will take measurements in inches, centimeters, furlongs, Planck lengths or even parsecs. Measurements done in Canas or cubits, however, are highly discouraged.

The opening on mine is around 12 inches

 

[jamboparty]

I believe mine is about 9.877895e-18 Pc. I based it off the size of the spare lid that I had available.

 

[Nuggethead]

11.5".. I found a stainless lid that fits it perfectly.

Thanks! That's 11.9999" by my calculations. (Just to make things a bit easier for me).

[sarsnik]

12.5" inches. Cut at 12 then ground it out a little to fit a lid.

 

[hoptimal]

15.5" I cut the tops off

 

[rstump]

12" =/-

 

[TopherM]

12"

 

[Jbear]

about 12.5"

I got 12.0001" so as long as you tolerances are < .001 you should be good. :cross:

 

[kal]

Yup. Close enough.

Ironically, very close to what I get when I do the Kessel run too.... (For all you sci-fi geeks out there).

[rossi46]

12.5"

 

[passedpawn]

12

 

[krazydave]

11.5".. I found a stainless lid that fits it perfectly.

Mine is 11.5" also and I can't find a lid anyplace!

 

[texasbrewer73]

11". I cut mine to the size of the pot lids I have for my cookware.

 

[Varroa]

I haven't measured mine but I know I made mine too big. I almost made mine as big as the opening between the handles and now any lid I find that will fit between the handles will fall through the opening. I have to use a lid that sits on top of the handles.

[wrench]

~12", but I've been considering going bigger.

 

[Backporchbrewery]

Mine is 11.5" <- biggest I could get it with the grinder I was using.

 

[Deric]

~12"

 

[Retrofit]

About 15". I (carefully) cut the inside out, but kept the handles to make it easy to move. One of my friends once said, "You make beer in that hunk of junk?" And I said, "That hunk of junk can do the Kessel Run in 12 parsecs."

 

[jamboparty]

Yup. Close enough.

Anything less than 12 is respectable!

 

[clowe]

12 in opening in the keggle, and for a lid I use an upside down pizza pan from the dollar store screwed a metal drawer knob on.

12 in opening in the keggle, and for a lid I use an upside down pizza pan from the dollar store screwed a metal drawer knob on.

Brilliant! I have a pizza pan, and always fudge around with removing it from the cut out.

 

[pvtschultz]

Mine's either 11.5" or 12.0", not sure off hand though...

 

[conpewter]

Pretty much the usual for me

1.88590638 × 10^34 planck length


But my new one will have the bottom cut out all the way to the edges so my ID will be 15"

P.S. I also do the kessel run in less than 2.29106459 × 10^52 planck length

 

[JuanMoore]

Mine is 11.75". I bought a cheap lid at the local restaurant supply store, and cut the hole to fit the lid. The lid claimed to be for a 12" opening, but I wanted a nice snug fit.

 

[Nuggethead]

Mine is 11.5" also and I can't find a lid anyplace!

The Ol' Lady had a nice set of stainless pots and one lid fit just right. She still can't figure out what happened to it.

 

[Dan]

Man, mine's only 11 1/4 inches. I'm starting to feel inadequate. A 28 quart turkey fryer pot fit's it perfectly.

 

[bribo179]

12 inches, and I made a lid with the cutout and some ss washers

 

[Willum]

12 inches

 

[JRems]

11.5", that's the largest I could do with my grinder
Also isn't 12 parsecs a measurement of distance not time?
