Fix for non-matching bulkhead fitting to false bottom fitting


Update on the non-matching hose fittings for my mash tun bulkhead and false-bottom. Previously on my post from earlier this month, I talked about building my own bulkhead for a mash tun and ordering a false bottom. I realized that the bulk head fitting and the fitting on the false bottom were two different sizes. Instead of going out to buy a new fitting on the inside, I decided to get creative with tubing.

I created a fix for the nonmatching fittings. I got 2 types of tubes.
1/2" diameter silicone tube, and a 3/8" reinforced tubing.
Fit one right into the other, and shove it in good.
and voila! Pure creative brilliance.
