This stainless steel ball valve is the perfect match to most homebrewing kettles with a 1/2" coupler or nipple on the bottom. The 3-piece design makes it easy to take apart and keep clean, preventing any spoilage organism from lingering between batches. It has a 1/2" FPT inlet and outlet.
If you want to use the absolute best style of valve available to homebrewers, the butterfly valve is the clear choice. Brewers love butterfly valves because they are far and away the most sanitary option. Regular ball valves can trap small amounts of wort inside them, which inevitably leads to an infection that can sour your beer. That's why we always recommend breaking down your ball valves and cleaning them between uses. Butterfly valves have virtually nowhere for contaminants to hide and are easily cleaned in place. They also can be taken apart for a deeper cleaning if desired, although it's rarely necessary.
This 1.5" Tri-Clamp Butterfly Valve features stainless steel construction and 7-position handle. The plastic handle can be rotated 180° for right or left hand operation.

If your conical doesn't feature a dedicated sample port, pulling samples from your fermenter can be pain. You're likely forced to pull samples from your racking valve and don't have a way to control flow. With a butterfly valve and this plunger-style sample valve, you can do just that. Attach to your butterfly valve and open it all the way, then slowing open the sample valve to cleanly pour a sample.

Silicone gaskets have a much wider temperature range than EPDM gaskets and are recommended for hot side applications. They are less resistant to acids and caustic chemicals, and may show signs of wear faster than EPDM gaskets.

Stop leaving clean, perfectly good, wine or beer in your tank and always drain from the perfect height with our tri-clover style rotating racking arms. Remove your existing tri-clamp butterfly valve and place this rotating racking arm between the tank and your valve. When it is time to rack off slightly loosen the clamp nearest the tank and use the built-in handle to rotate to just about the lees level.
A white rotatable gasket is placed between the welded in tank fitting and this rotating arm. Because the micro finish of the gasket is hard and slippery it allows the rotating arm to rotate in place. A standard black EPDM gasket is placed between the rotating arm and the butterfly valve and is always kept completely tightened.
The length of the arm after the elbow is 10.5" allowing you to draw from roughly 8" above or below the valve level. The arm measures 9.5" from the TC fitting to the elbow. We suggest you assemble the rotating arm and butterfly valve in such a way that the arm is pointed in the same direction as the handle on your butterfly valve. In this manner you always know how the racking arm is positioned in your tank.

Tri-clamp fittings are the gold standard in professional breweries and they've been widely adopted in homebrewing as T.C. kettles, fermenters, and pumps become more widely available. Tri-clamp fittings allow you to make a sanitary connection without any nooks or crannies for contaminants to hide in and they can be cleaned in place. Use anywhere you want to make a sanitary connection.

A set of "elbows" is great for connecting hoses to a pump so they run parallel to each other. With 2" and 3" hose, this dramatically reduces the space needed to allow the pump to pass. In addition, having the lines run parallel makes the pump more agile when moving around the winery when connected.
Keep an eye on the flow during transfer or monitor yeast activity during fermentation with this 2" tri-clamp sight glass. Place the sight glass in-line when you transfer wort from kettle to fermenter to help you oversee how your in-line oxygenator is flowing. One of the few disadvantages of a stainless steel conical is that you can't watch the yeast as they go to work. With a sight glass you'll be able to observe how your yeast are performing throughout the fermentation process. This also makes for a great way to harvest yeast. Simply attach it to your dump valve and close off the other end with a T.C. end cap, collect the yeast and remove the sight glass, cap it at the other end and store it for your next batch.
