These Plugs are able to handle higher pressure applications and temperature. It features a hexagonal head and male thread end. The threaded pipe plug fitting with male thread ends is used to close the end of a pipe having female threads. These plugs are recommended for use with brass, copper or iron pipe for creating a seal and close off pipe ends in oil and natural gas, water and airlines, gasoline, vacuum and grease. <a href="https://myconceptsofmechanicalproducts.blogspot.in/search?q=plugs" rel="nofollow">read more</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04538029469372073126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6021466299731070539.post-32919433484711737232013-03-11T21:05:46.780-07:002013-03-11T21:05:46.780-07:00As far as I know, brass fittings would be just fin...As far as I know, brass fittings would be just fine for you, the brass compression fittings I'm using work just fine for me. I don't see brass pipes being malleable enough to bend into the shape you want, so I'm not clear on how you might use brass pipes for this. <br /><br />I used a digital thermometer, but analog should work just fine.

Sorry about that. <br /><br />RE Length: Yes, gravity feed should work for you, it works for me. <br /><br />RE Wire: It should increase the turbulence in the water which should make the cooler somewhat more efficient. It may also promote more even spacing between the tube and the hose, which may also help.Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12469900515378207257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6021466299731070539.post-46542566708880382002013-01-15T04:44:35.341-08:002013-01-15T04:44:35.341-08:00Hey, are you Bob the builder?

I learned that combining different elements can cause chemical reactions. One more thing, what type of thermometer did you use: digital or mercury laboratory? Well, for what it’s worth, I think the brass compression fittings will work nicely to prevent leaks or unwanted air passage.<a href="http://grunerbrass.com/tube-fittings/" rel="nofollow">Gayle Manning</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09201461034568082406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6021466299731070539.post-59980506668169103002013-01-06T22:47:23.674-08:002013-01-06T22:47:23.674-08:00I am going to make one of these this week.

I know where to get 20ft length of copper tubing but not 25ft, does it matter? <br /><br />For a chiller this length, can I use gravity to feed the wort through?<br /><br />I have seen other designs that have a copper wire around the outside of the copper tubing to breakup the flow of water and increase the cooling of the wort. Is this useful?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15129242582424253266noreply@blogger.com
