    Spike CIP ball

    Anyone used one of these yet? They claim it works well with a chugger, but other balls require more pressure from what I've read. Also, I have an SS Brewtech conical, wondering if it will be too long to work well with my flat lid.

    Triclamps wort return for mash recirculating

    I'm making a tun from a sanke and I'm thinking about adding a 1.5" TC ferrule for the return port.

    input on AG equipment

    I'm making the leap to all-grain. I've already built my mash tun by adding a false bottom (why are these so expensive?) and a ball-valve to a 10 gallon lowe's cooler. One thing I've learned about buying equipment thus far, is that I should buy with consideration to future upgrades. I did...
