    Awesome, thanks Evan.

    Hey mate.  Al did a great job on the kegs - I picked them up earlier in the week.  The brewstand is all done now too (minus attaching the final burner) so this weekend the mission is to get everything assembled so I can get everything cleaned and then run some tests, and calibration etc.

     

    I put one keggle together last night, trying to get it water tight so I could soak it in PBW overnight (they were all pretty gross on the inside). My thread taping skills could do with some work, but otherwise it's looking good.  However, I may need to talk with you about some new gaskets for the bulkheads - I think the ones you've given me are a bit too thin - even with two of them I've got a small leak.  I'm going to pull this one apart again and reassemble it, so that could fix it, but I'll let you know.

     

    Hopefully I'll have some photos to upload tomorrow.
