Cleaning valves
« on: February 11, 2023, 08:06:35 am »
I clean the s***ake mushrooms out of my cold side ball valves on my fermenters. I didn't like these crappy valves on the all in ones until I took one apart so easily.  But the flow rate? 

What do y'all do on the hot side? 
What valves do you like?
Can you easily replace the ball valves on anvils, g-fathers and mash and boils with better valves?

You can easily replace valves on the GFnG40mand G70. On the G30 it's a moot point.
