Does the aspect-ratio of a mash-tun's dimensions matter like it does for brew-kettles? i.e. would a keggle mash-tun be better or worse than short-fat mash-tun like the 15gal polarware pots? e.g. I could imagine a taller grain bed might be slower to distribute the heat in a recirculation... or maybe not? Stout Tanks, for example, just scales up by making vessels taller, including their mash-tuns, rather than wider. But commercially mash-tuns are usually shorter and fatter... roughly equal height and diameter. Maybe this doesn't really matter. Just wondering what y'all think.
