Subject: bazooka installation


I was given a Bazooka "T" for my birthday which I intend to use as a
filter in my boilpot, but I'm not sure how to install it. Basically it
is a copper "T" with mesh bags coming off the two upper branches of the
T. So I need to somehow attach the lower portion of the copper "T" to
my weldless spigot which is threaded on the inside of the pot. Ideas?
Pics?

Thanks John, that was exactly what I needed! $10 shipped to my door.

If you go here http://www.zymico.com/bazooka/ it looks like the "T"
comes with a copper pipe adapter that is threaded on one side to attach
to the weldless spigot. Do you not have that piece?

There are different adapters depending on how you're going to use the T,
so they're probably sold seperately from the T itself.

Sigh of relief - I was shopping at Northern Brewer and got the cooler
stuff and a bazooka T. Luckily, I saw the adapters and got one.

I may get to do an all-grain next weekend after all.

I'm hoping that the bazooka will get me by for a while using it in lieu
of a false bottom in the cooler. If I can keep from dorking it up with
the mash paddle...
