4 of 5 Measure twice, NO, measure four times. February 27, 2023
Reviewer: Pete from seattle, WA United States  
It was too long for my SS Brewtech TC kettle. I had to cut a half an inch off it. If I had to do it again I would have measured carefully and had Brew Hardware cut the open end for me. It was a royal pain to cut this with a pipe cutter.

5 of 5 Not just for the boil kettle.... April 18, 2022
Reviewer: Justin T from Cleveland, TN United States  
I bought a couple of these for my new triclamp kettles. I love these because other diptubes push out the ball/butterfly valve out further from the kettle wall. They have a great seal on the ports of my kettle. With but a few ounces, the kettle is more or less completely drained!

Another plus is using these in my Spike Flex+. Like mentioned before, it allows the valve to be closer to the ferenter's wall making the Flex less tipsy and keeping yeast from collecting in the port area of the sample valve and potentially clogging it. They are NOT really designed for use in a stainless fermenter because the diptube is pressed into the friction fit portion (possible sanitation issue) but since they're stainless I can always boil them to be sure. The other downside (obviously) is the diptube can't be rotated with the valve.

Now if Bobby can make a version that would fit the Spike false bottoms.......

Simple solution to add a pickup tube to your kettle &  1.5 valve. Pushes right inside of the weldless fitting

5 of 5 The Best February 28, 2021
Reviewer: Adam from Annville, PA  
I have been using Bobby's products for a long time and this is one of the best. I recently upgraded to a kettle with 1.5" TC and didn't like how far the traditional diptube setups make the valve and fittings stick out. Enter this little gem. They insert snuggly into the TC hole and stay put throughout the brew day. They're easy to remove for cleaning and you can adjust the depth by pushing them into the hole a little further. Great product.

5 of 5 Solid product January 14, 2019
Reviewer: Vincent from Poughkeepsie, NY United States  
Also using this on my Unibrau V3 setup. It's a little long to point completely downwards, so it sits at an angle but performs perfectly fine. Really helps get every bit of wort transferred. Unibraus have a good amount of dead-space, so this is a welcome addition.

5 of 5 Diptube used with Unibrau V3 July 20, 2018
Reviewer: Dan from Columbia, MD United States  
Purchased this for use with my Unibrau V3 since I do 3-4 gallon batch sizes.  I got tired of making an extra half gallon to meet my volume target into the fermenter so I thought I'd give this diptube a try.  Works extremely well and sucks up nearly every last drop so I don't have to waste wort anymore.
