Weldless BrewMometer
™
The weldless BrewMometer™ can be installed in kettles with a wall thickness up to ¼” thick. Determine the desired location
for the BrewMometer™ and mark the center point with a permanent marker and center punch. Drill a 3/16” pilot hole, then
enlarge it to ½” using a “step drill” as shown in Fig. 1. Step drills are available through many hardware or home
improvement stores. After the hole is drilled, ensure both sides of the hole are free from burrs. The step drill can be used on
the back side of the hole to remove burrs and sharp edges.
Caution:
Use wrenches on BOTH sides of the kettle –
do not tighten by holding the dial-face
of the BrewMometer™ or
you will damage the thermometer. Use care not to hit the small calibration screw on the back side of the thermometer.
Install the O-ring over the ½”-20 UNF threaded portion of the BrewMometer™ and into the O-ring groove. Place the
BrewMometer™ through the hole in the kettle from the outside and install the rubber washer and tighten the ½”-20
sanitary nut finger tight. Using two wrenches (one wrench on the inside of the kettle and one on the outside), tighten the
½”-20 sanitary nut snugly (See Fig. 2). Pipe tape is NOT required on the weldless BrewMometer™ models.
