TTB is demanding we purchase a flowmeter to determine Taxable volume coming into/out of the Bright Tank. Apparently just counting the number of kegs filled isn't enough for them.
Looking at the GPI G Series but at 1.5" the flowrates would need to be between 6.7 - 67 Gallons Per Minute. Heavily doubt our counterpressure Keg Filler even with 3 heads would ever approach these minimums. Even our 3000 Bottle per Hour bottling line would only be able to JUST approach the 5 Gallon Per Minute mark. Thought about using a 1" Flowmeter but that would involve possibly creating turbulence before we even fill the kegs which seems like a terrible idea. Definitely not an engineer so I could greatly use some suggestions on a good work around here.
