I mash in a 10G igloo container on my countertop. When it comes time for runoff, I attach tubing to ball valve and drain into containers that I dump into my boil kettle. Unfortunately, I can't drain right into the BK. I've been using 2QT aluminum pitchers to do this...however, I left PBW in one of them and it totally oxidized it and I ended up tossing it.
Anyone do anything like this and have suggestions for containers? I'd like it a little bigger (maybe 3-4 quarts). I'd prefer stainless, but since it's pre-boil, I could probably go with polycarbonate. Stainless is probably pretty expensive too. The pyrex half gallon measuring cups are too heavy. Maybe a pitcher of some kind?
Any input?
