Hmmm :think: Reckon I could drop one of those gin baskets in my bubbler without it tipping over? Worried it might make the whole rig too high and top heavy...

But damn! That would be a nice bolt on!

Yeah mate they're not that heavy, they only add to the weight centred over the boiler ;-)

Damn those column tees look good. Best sight-glass style I've seen I reckon.

Yup they're 4 x 4 x 3"SG tees, you can order them in 4, 6 0r even 8" if you like, the SG's are available in 2, 3 & 4" :D

Also the SG's are available as single units for anyone who wants to fit them to a copper column tee instead of the ferrule styled sight glasses :D

Even though it's difficult to see in the Pic, the PC ends are slightly con caved to avoid pooling
