I acquired 2 keggles a bit ago and have been using one to boil in... love it. The 2nd has been just sitting there begging to be used. I was looking at some Herms setups just for fun and noticed that some people use a cooler for the mash tun. I currently have a Igloo 52 quart as my mash tun and getting decent results from it batch sparging. Would be be any more beneficial to me to create a herms from the extra keggle to the MT? Would I get better results such as clarity, maintaining temps and efficiency? Some setups look very complicated but some super simple... me I'd just be trying to recirculate similar to:
Would I need a SS wort chiller and a pump? Would it be bad to use copper? 1/2 or 3/8? I've been looking to upgrade my 3/8 IC to 1/2 x50' this season anyhow if it would work for chilling and for a herms then it would be more justified
