So I got the first part from Garry for my new Mash Tun. This will be the outlet. It will clamp to the neck of a Sanke I have. I have the B3 folding false bottom. Should be able to get to putting it together next weekend.

Got some work done this weekend in between working on my truck, and bicycle.

Obvioulsy I still need to cut the new keg.

Hoses to lower QD fittings

Hoses to upper QD fittings, the middle hose goes to the new mash tun.

The new QD panels.


Another shot of the QDs

The chillus Convolutes, I still need to weld on the mounting bracket. I wanted to wait until I knew for sure it was placed properly.

A shot of the back of the upper QD panel.

The triclover fitting on the MT bottom.

I'm gonna give this setup a try and if it works well this should be the last of the changes. I may move my control panel and change how the kettles rest on the stand, but that is not a priority. If all goes well I will then take it all apart and have it powder coated, or ceramic coated for heat tolerance.

Hey Mike, Can I suggest that you take a full shot then the details. Its hard to get perspective on this when they are all close ups. Lots going on there.

On the Keg if you need to cut the top let me know I might know some one with a Plasma system. lol
