Hi all,
I have A Keep Cool cylindrical esky that I'm turning into a mash tun. I've fashioned a manifold based on the braided toilet hose model but I'm not convinced that I've got it right. I've yet to test it but I'm worried that I haven't used enough hose or that the hose will not pick up the wort properly. Does anyone have any detailed instructions on implementing this design? I've looked at the stuff on brewiki and though instructive it still leaves a bit to the imagination.
My particular knowledge gaps are around the type and arrangement of fittings on the inside of the tun where the "T" piece and the hose join the threaded pipe. I can't get hold of the female bard for a start, none at Bunnings.
Anyway hopefully you can get a feel for my problem.
TIA
Patrick.
