I gotta go with swapping out bargain basement Amazon taps with NukaTaps. Didn’t realize how much better the pours would be.
As a side note, I also had one of my refrigerator controllers go south on me this year.suddenly became erratic and dysfunctional for some unknown reason.
That's exactly what I paid for my sub compact fridge$75 used mini fridge on Craigslist to use as a fermentation chamber.

I believe this digital age we are in creates hundreds of opportunities for line voltage spikes to knock out semiconductors. On our computers most folks use line suppressors like APC backup battery units.
All our other sensitive digital circuitry goes commando around the place without good line conditioning. Dryers, coffee makers TV’s, everything holds a mini computer these days, waiting for the next voltage spike or brown-out to come knocking.
Been in the market for one of these for a while. Where in the heck did you get one for <$100?A three hole stainless bar sink with side boards.
My 48 qt Coleman cooler mash tun with bulkhead when I switched from extract to all grain a couple years ago. Everything cost around ~$50.
I use bazooka. Also yes I do have a new tag line lol.wait i notice, do you have a new tag line? what kind of screen do you use in that MT? now that i think about it, moving from a crappy dome flase bottom to a SS washing machine supply filter was huge, but eventialy it got compacted. now i use a bazooka!
bazooka for the win!
how do you sparge and ever consider maybe a shorter bazooka so it reaches the entire length?
Shorter I think you meant longer? That's a 12" bazooka tube and I'm not sure you can get a longer one and I've heard that doesn't make a lot of difference especially with my method. I employ the batch sparge method heat my water up on the stove in a 7 gallon kettle and add to the tun.
no i was thinking shorter, for an extension...but if you're batch sparging, guess it wouldn't matter. from the square cooler, why i asked.

I just had a WELL.....DUH moment as I read this.......I HATE dealing with the sludge.....this sounds like a wonderful idea.....One of my best upgrades for cheap was 5 gallon paint strainer bags. I boil for 5 minutes to sanitize. I use these to strain the wort after chilling before putting into the fermenter to strain out hops and trub. I'll place one inside the keg when filling from the fermenter to catch any hops or other additions I don't want in the keg.
Does a HBT subscription count?
A time ago the VFW had to replace there 3 hole with a 4 hole ,and I couldn't pull out a Benny fast enough.Been in the market for one of these for a while. Where in the heck did you get one for <$100
