I thought I would add some pics of the Buffalo boiler tap, as it may be of use to anybody interested.
I have also done a small modification by adding a hop strainer.
Showing the silicone valve removed from the tap body. Very easy to pop on & off for cleaning.
The tap with valve attached.
tap ready to be screwed into the body, take note of my perfect insulation around the kettle!
Here is my hop filter "base view" showing 3mm drilled holes. Note the perfectly circular shape to the copper!!!
Here is the filter installed. It also shows that circular shape & how it contours perfectly with the inside diameter (by the way for any non native UK members this is what known as English sarcasm). Damn those pipe benders!
The copper was also soaked in Starsan for 24 hours after these pics to remove patina etc.

I spent lots of money on booze, birds and fast cars. The rest I squandered
I've stopped drinking, but only when I'm asleep
I ONCE gave up women and alcohol - it was the worst 20 minutes of my life
