Here's the cooler that I already have and which I am planning on converting to an MLT for batch sparging: http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=4807332
Soon to be new to AG, and have done 2 PMs using grain bags in a 5 gall Rubbermaid cylindrical cooler. We will probably mostly be doing 10 gal batches when brewing AG.
Has anyone else converted the 70qt Coleman Xtreme? Anything I should know?
A S/S braid certainly seems cheaper and easier than building a collection manifold. Is the manifold that much better that it's worth the effort?
For building the collection manifold, any thoughts on CPVC vs Copper?
I noticed pictures of slotted collection manifolds with the slots facing various directions, some up, some down and even one that was facing the side. Any thoughts on slot orientation would be appreciated.
Thanks!
