go to a plumbing supplies or mitre 10/bunnings & get an "easy hooker" from the plumbing section. They are used to connect taps up to wall outlets eg under vanities. they have the braid over a rubber hose & a screw fitting on each end. You will need to cut 1 end completely off & just through the braid on the other end (that allows you to get the braid off the hose easier cause you have something to grip the hose with. Wrap some electrical tape aropund the hose where you want to cut & cut in the middle of the tape - this will stop the "jaggy" ends of the braid from catching on things like your hand a lot.When making a mash tun, where do i get the braid from and what is it called.
Does it have any tube inside it or is it straight braid
I'd say it depends on what you have or can get.Now should I go for rectangular or cylindrical?
Keep it out of sunlight
Are those roller tubs food safe? A lot of them are made in China, and we all know what they're like with plastics. You might end up having some very interesting additives to your beer
Actually the Rubbermaid 10Gal cooler looks like it'd make a great MLT. Just need to manufacture an effective manifold or just fork out for one of the cylindrical falsies.
Damn, I missed the vile invective! Nice idea for a tun, although all my attempts to use those things as eskies have been short lived, they seem to degrade and crack very rapidly and not hold water. Keep it out of sunlight and go easy on it and it will be interesting to see how long it lasts.
