If the fitting does not have a nut just get a cap for the fitting and drill a hole so the probe will slide in. thats what I had to do.Check this post -

I have read, read, rea, and read some more, in fact i have read every page. i am sorry if i cant remember it all. Especially when the person says its "some kind of water line fitting". i was hoping someone could tell me a more specific name.
The small plug should have flat edges, a cresent wrench should do the trick. I went with the patented JD vent tabs. I like em cause you can fine tune then a lot more that the pipe nipples and caps method. With the nipple and cap method you will need to either have the entire cap on or off as I understand it. With the JD tabs, they turn on a single screw and can be opened or closed as much as needed, very much like the vent on a Kettle lid.
look at the bag it has the size of the fitting. go to the plumbing section and show or tell them the size you need. take the gauge with you to the store and tell them what you need to do. make sure the probe fits the hole in the fitting, it will be just a little bigger than the probe it will work fine.I have read, read, rea, and read some more, in fact i have read every page. i am sorry if i cant remember it all.

It's all good. It's a long thread and takes some time to track. I bookmark the stuff I find interesting.
What you need is a Watts A-192 Hose Barb Adapter with 1/4 barb x 1/4 mip.
Home Depot or Lowes sells them. You will also need a nut and a washer.

Cover the intakes with magnets it will save you money and works great, you can always change it out later to the JD method. JD is a brethern here and he made a way to seal the intakes with a spring and metal. I foget the post number. I took a bunch of notes when I read this thread.Whats a JD vent tab. Is that the actual name. Sounds like something that i want to try.

Ok guys, i have a quick question. I scored a cheap 22.5 inch kettle($5, booya). I am going to use as much of this baby as possible in the building of my UDS(Lid, cooking Grate, the bottom lip for a flange). My question is, can i use the bottom grate from the UDS for the Charcoal Box? Or will that be too small? I can score another grate, but if this would work, why waste it?
