Howdy,
I'm reworking a MLT for a 3v herms setup and considering adding sightglass. I only fill the MLT by underleting from the HLT which does have a sightglass so by simply subtracting I do know the volume that has made it out and into the MLT. I see sightglasses on MLTs of other brewers set ups who also underlet, but I'm not sure what it really accomplishes considering the displacement of the grain. Could it just be because Blichmann BoilerMakers come standard with a sightglass and is serving no purpose?
