I had been thinking about something solid to use as a lid for my mash tun so I could route a recirc return line thru there since I can't return from the side of the keggle (mash basket). Realized I wasn't using my false bottom anymore, and I had an old bulkhead + loc line setup that I'd stowed away since I had been using BIAB bags / the basket.
Figured that would be a nice way to mount the bulkhead, could hinge it so I could adjust the loc line. I was planning on sandwiching it in reflectix insulation material, and using heavy duty velcro to do so. Anyone doing something similar?
I saw on the innernets the temp range for the velcro is 150*F. Since it'd all be sandwiched in the middle, I'm not too concerned as I'd imagine any consequence would be a possible loss of effectiveness of the adhesive. I wouldn't think there'd be a concern about the adhesive somehow getting into the wort, but considering a sanity check before I stick it on the false bottom.
