I really don't have time for new gadget development but I can't stop myself from drafting in CAD at 2am. What do you want to see in a Sanke fermenter kit that hasn't been done before? Here's what I have so far...
2" triclover flange with a nicely welded 1/2" half nipple and 18" long 7mm ID thermowell.
I wish I did the welds, pretty nice:
I figure at minimum you'd put your controller probe down the thermowell and then put one of the elbow barbs on top for a simple blowoff tube:
Something like this would be priced around $40.
Then you can get a little more fancy with pressure fermenting and transferring like this:
Basically you put a cross on there. The top port gets a 1/2" compression bore through fitting with a 24" x 1/2" stainless racking cane. I can imagine one port gets ball valve with blow off port (maybe a camlock so it could later double as a CO2 inlet for pressure transfers). The other side could get a 1/4" NPT reducer then to a tee for pressure gauge and spunding PRV.
What am I missing?
