Model: WLST240R - 44.99
This is the popular sight glass and thermometer combination kit that is built on the simplicity of the EZ-sight design. The only real difference is the TEE fitting instead of an elbow and it includes a thermometer. Two functions in one convenient weldless setup. From now on, these will include recalibratable thermometers which accounts for the slight increase in price.
Includes:
- 19" Polycarbonate Tubing rated to 250F.
- SS Tee and Mounting Hardware
- 2" Dial Face Thermometer,
4" probe length, 20-240F (Celcius marks as well), 1% of range accuracy. WITH recalibration screw on the back.
- High Temp. Silicone Gasket
- Stainless eye bolt for securing the tube to the top of your pot.
- Black Vinyl Numbers for each gallon mark from 2 to 15.(5-50 liter also available, see below)
Install Requirements:
- Drill a clean 9/16" diameter hole in the side of your HLT or boil kettle and install liquid connection hand tight, or just snug with a wrench. The weldless system is 100% leak free the first time with no teflon tape or messing around.
- Drill a 1/4" hole in the top/side of your vessel and install eyebolt to hold the sight tube vertical.
- Don't forget to grab a Step Bit if you don't already have one.
Options:
- You must specify if your vessel is straight sided or a converted keg. The tubing meant for a keg is threaded at a slight angle so that it remains vertical when installed into the curved bottom edge. If this is confusing, please view this video.
- In addition to the standard (most common) Sanke style keg, you can also purchase .These will work on kegs such as Coors and Hoff Stevens kegs.
- The standard calibration numbers included with this kit is 2-15 gallons. If you have a slightly larger vessel than 15 gallons, you can also add an extension strip that will add numbers 16-25 as well as 24 smaller arrows for 1/2 gallon increments below. If you would like to substitute 5-60 numbers for Litres, you must select "substitute 5-60 litres" in the dropdown below and click the "add to cart" button separately.


Note: Converted kegs hold just over 15 gallons so the 16-25 add on strips are not necessary in that case.
It is also highly recommended that you add at least one 20" long, 1/4" diameter nylon brush to your order for occassional cleaning of the interior of the entire sight tube (use with water or your favorite kettle cleaning detergent). $3.25

I would recommend watching the install video for calibration "how to." VERY useful!
Thanks Bobby!
Thanks Bobby
Super support: Videos, written and email support if you need it (I did, cause I'm a doof, not because of the product)
Keep up the great work.
Thanks!
It does!!!
Get one, you won't regret it!

Filled it up, calibrated it and not a leak to be found. The stickers were not my best job but they are close enough.
I have just a sight gauge to install on my aluminum boil kettle next, hope it goes as smoothly.
Thanks again for the excellent product and super fast shipping!
I was happy to buy from such an active supporter of the brewing community.
Video was very helpful, don't skip it.
Calibration went easily, instead of trying to find a one gallon container and filling it properly I used my 5 gallon bottling bucket spigot placed on a shelf over the Keg,refilling it every time it got to the 2 gallon mark from another bucket. If I had two people I would not even have had to stop the flow.
My only issue,purely cosmetic,is the Thermometer not being able to center it - no big deal though.
Thank you for your great service,Bobby!

Super fast shipping and packaged well! I am very pleased! I have Sankeys in the basement for 6 months with the tops cut out, and I have been slowly ordering parts. I was estatic to discover Bobby's site with the sight glass and thermometer combos! The price cannot be beat and from what I have seen in the quality of the product received, it is GREAT STUFF! I brewed my last 5 gallon batch last weekend, and now have all of the stuff for an HLT and a boil pot! This will perform as expected I am sure! THANKS!
Vinyl numbers make the finished product look professional. Great addition to my brewing setup!
Thankyou Bobby.
Thanks!
Installation was a breeze.
Emails were responded to in a very quick manner
Thanks!
Please get more!!!
Scot, if you find that the assembly is getting too hot, a simple heat shield underneath would solve it easily.
cheers!
Thanks, bobby
