I am trying to design an economical 5 gallon system to start with and cannot really find answers to my new guy questions. The only component I have now is the cooler pictured below that I plan on converting into a mash tun. Igloo 45184 Glide Pro Wheeled Cooler, 110 Qt. It was a gift and still in the box.
I've seen the modified braided hose assembly and copper tube manifolds for mash tuns. Which one is better in terms of function and consistency? I'm assuming the main difference is volume of outflow? Is there a reason no one wraps a single layer of metal screen around manifold?
I'm a brewb so bear with me! Thanks!
