Kalk jug

[Tab28]

Not sure if this is right forum but. I had a 5 gallon jug with a nib on the bottom used for dripping kalk. It was perfect for gravity dripping. I broke the nib it screws in the jug. Does anyone know where i can get a replacement 5 gallon dripper or at least the screw in nib to replace the one i broke? The nib screwed into the jug about 1" from bottom, for kalk settlement.

Might look on eBay. Or maybe if you post a pic we can have a better idea of what you need.

The nib broke so getting a good picture is not likely. Would not be able to tell what it is. I did find Kent makes one. They call it an Aquadoser. But it is only 2.5 gallon. I have the 5 gallon so i would need the screw in nib. But i have no idea what it is called. It has no nut like a bulkhead since you can't get hand inside jug.

The first is the from wensite showing nib
Second is my broken piece. It has a o-ring to stop it from leaking out.

You can just buy a new one from a local home improvement store (Ace, Home Depot, Lowes) It's a nylon mpt (male pipe thread) to hose barb elbow. Probably 1/2" mpt to 1/4" in barb (bring it with you when you go to the store). Save the black gasket from the old one and use it with the new one. If there was no nut on the inside of the container then the container is probably tapped and you can wrap some Teflon tape around the threads to get a solid seal.
