Thanks for your advice on refitting the sightglass tubes. I take
every suggestion and add it to the total. I'll wait to see if there
are any others, stir them all in a pot, and hopefully come up
with a goo strategy.
As to the drain/blow-down hole in the end cap - it has perfect
threads and I'm working on contacting an EBAY seller in Germany
who might have what I need.
Still locked down - on and off pouring here in Brooklyn. What do you
do if you've already steamed everything up?
