I'll start this thread off like probably thousands of others on here lately. We're opening a nano-brewery. Working on a location right now then soon filing our Brewer's Notice. We'll be brewing back-to-back multiple batches on a 10 gallon homebrew setup to fill fermentors for the time being. My question is regarding sanitary fittings. Everything we have now is 1/2" threaded SS NPT fittings. We use reinforced hose with SS quick disconnects on everything. We go from kettle to pump to plate chiller through an inline thermometer and O2 injection setup. I've never had any infection with this setup. That being said, I don't know if the inspector will require triclamp fittings. I haven't seen anything in the regs that prevents me from operating the way I am, but others of you may be able to provide some insight.
Thanks in advance!
