    Do any of you have a borosilicate sight glass that you are using on your equipment? If so, were did you purchase it? I bought 2 regular plastic sight glasses from Bobby from New Jersey but the one on my boil kettle is cracked from temperature shock/differences. It has only had about 15 beers through it. So I figured I just bought a borosilicate instead of having to do deal with this again. Thanks!

    plug it unless you have a 3 tier setup...and even then you probably only need it on the hot liquor tank...imho :slight_smile:

    I have a single tier set up with 2 pumps. I'd like to keep the sight glass. I was able to find this. Gotta add the fitting for it and I'm good.
