Ok well I have been thinking about the different ways I could measure the volume in my new kettle (keg). Sight glass could be a bit dodgey due to the heat coming up the sides .....
Anyway I was thinking if I used the spear modified it so I could drop it in the wort and get it to stick up vertical. I could then get some kind of wooden or plastic rod which floats and stick it down the center of the spear. Once it is calibrated you could read the volume based on how high it floated ..... I guess you could even mount it externally.
Anyone ever tried something like this? Any ideas what I could use as the floating rod?
An idea anyway.
