So I've been lurking around here for a while and haven't quite seen answers, so I registered so I could make my first post and almost certainly be redirected to a place where this has already been answered...
I'm slowly making the switch to all grain and am currently working on building my mash tun. After reading a lot, I decided to go with copper pipes instead of braided ss. My question is, what do all of you use to hold the pipes together. I just bought couplers which fall apart pretty easily. I have read that I don't want to do anything permanent so that I can disassemble for cleaning. Right now I have thread tape on each connection, but I'm thinking I don't want to re-tape each connection after I take it apart for cleaning. Thoughts?
