Coleman Xtreme 36QT Mash tun.

Post by Jonathan Briggs » Mon Mar 14, 2016 11:33 am

I just recently purchased one of these to use as my MT. It comes with a drainage tap that I would like to attach a 12" bazooka and 2 part tap too.

Has anyone done this with success (e.g. no leaks) and if so, what parts did you use and where from. I'm not sure how you go about attaching the bazooka to the tap and how to ensure a good seal at the interface inside and out.

I have done this with success, apart from what you've already got you'll need a 1/2" bsp socket like this - http://themaltmiller.co.uk/index.php?_a ... ductId=398

That'll go inside the cooler once you've removed the plastic drainage spout and will connect the thread of the tap to the thread of the filter. The fit isn't exactly perfect however my tap came with decent sized washers that were larger than the hole in the cooler which meant there weren't any gaps left.
