Review on 🍺 Stainless Steel Homebrew Thermowell (Weldless) by Otomatico by Payton Luna

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Does not work when shipped

This is typical of prefabricated seamless fittings; has no inner groove for an O-ring on the outside. This means that the O-ring must be pressed into the thread. I couldn't get it to seal. I ended up with a thick 1.13 ID X .052 stainless washer (McMaster) and another thin washer close to the male thread. External hex, then thin washer, then o-ring with 1.13 washer outside so it doesn't stick out, then pot, then nut inside with no o-ring. It works, but it's not that great. And the inner diameter of the protection tube is actually too big for my sensor, so I had to fill it with thermal paste. But the general build quality is good.

Pros
  • Temperature and humidity
Cons
  • disappears
