Description Operating Recommendations
 
Deliver mash recirculation wort or sparge water precisely to the top of any grain bed height with this kit. This assembly is made from "Loc-Line" which is a the trade name for this positionable plastic tubing used wherever flow needs to be directed and stay put. You can adjust the output from the same height as the port all the way down to 12" below the port to adjust for five or ten gallon batches of varying grain bills.We spent way too long trying to come up with a clever name for this thing. Mash Tube, Any Height Recirulation Port, Sparge Height Thingy. A lot of people use a piece of hose or copper tubing on the inside of their mash tun recirculation (or sparge) port but it's not as cool as this.

You have a choice in how you'd like to mount the kit and what vessel it is going into. All options include a number of 1/2" ID straight interlocking locline segments and one locline to 1/2" NPT thread adapter. Read the options below for other differences:

  • Plastic Only - You can buy just the loc-line assembly including the 1/2" male connector and 16 flexible segments and thread it into your own bulkhead. It provides a maximum vertical drop of about 12" with the last two links bent to horizontal.
INSTALL KITS
All install kits include the plastic parts above, two SS metal washers, and a hose connect/QD fitting for the input (choices below):

  • Install Kit with Hose Barb. After drilling a 7/8" hole in the top sidewall or through the lid, insert the male threads of the locline assembly through the hole using one SS washer on the inside and one on the outside. Add teflon tape to the threads and thread on the Hose Barb fitting. You can connect your hose directly to the barb.
  • Install Kit with BLQD-A. After drilling a 7/8" hole in the top sidewall or through the lid, insert the male threads of the locline assembly through the hole using one SS washer on the inside and one on the outside. Add teflon tape to the threads and thread on the BLQD fitting. You'll also need to buy a BLQD C, Cplus, C90 or Cplus90 to connect between the fitting and your hose.
  • Install Kit with Camlock type A. After drilling a 7/8" hole in the top sidewall or through the lid, insert the male threads of the locline assembly through the hole using one SS washer on the inside and one on the outside. Add teflon tape to the threads and thread on the Cam A fitting. You'll also need to buy a CamC, CamBigC, or CamBL to connect between the fitting and your hose.
  • Install Kit with BLQD-A90. After drilling a 7/8" hole in the top sidewall or through the lid, insert the male threads of the locline assembly through the hole using one SS washer on the inside and one on the outside. Add teflon tape to the threads and thread on the BLQD fitting. You'll also need to buy a BLQD C or Cplus to connect between the fitting and your hose.

This image below is the BLQD-A90 option when it's threaded together. Your vessel lid would sit between the two SS washers (not shown in the picture).

Added a 2.5" flare nozzle -- could not ask for a better mash re-circulation

4 of 5 Good quality but did I need it? May 12, 2023
Reviewer: Stephan Piotrowski from Redwood City, CA United States  
In retrospect, not sure I needed this. But I will continue to consider how best to make use of it. Hooked up to my Anvil Foundry in combination with TC adapter for the lid. This length of loc line is a bit long for directing recirculating wort to the top of the malt pipe. May need to get a loc line tool and remove a few links.

5 of 5 Elegant solution for mash return November 25, 2022
Reviewer: Jay Hager from Bend, OR United States  
I mounted this thing in the lid of my mash tun and then insulated the lid. It's easy to shape and direct the flow of wort. Much better than what I was doing before.

5 of 5 Great mod for Foundry 10.5 July 27, 2022
Reviewer: Derek from NH United States  
Works as advertised.  Slight modification to the lid hole as the description says.  I used a knockout punch tool instead of a step drill because I had access to one, but they also seem to be a cheaper option than buying the bit if you need to purchase something.  Good adjustment options to put right on top of the grain bed.

Reviewer: Anthony Neal from Asheville, NC United States  
Again, another amazing product! I had a question about hooking it up with the weldless connects, and everyone was very helpful and informative. I will always look to Brewhardware first for my home brewery needs.
