Upgrading to a 15 gallon kettle

[dhelegda]

I am upgrading from an 8 gallon kettle to a 15 gallon kettle. I have a whirlpool arm (shown in the pictures below) on my 8 gallon kettle. I still want to make 5 gallon batches so my Whirlpool arm is going to to have to be lower on the 15 gal kettle. Is there any problems that I might have putting the whirlpool arm so low in the kettle?View attachment ImageUploadedByHome Brew1483653382.223801.jpgView attachment ImageUploadedByHome Brew1483653405.776006.jpg

No problem at all. Indeed, most folks either place the whirlpool port on a BK roughly parallel with their drain port, or use a dip tube to extend down near the bottom of the vessel...

Cheers!
