Hey guys.
I have a 56 quart coleman cooler that I wanted to turn into a mash tun, since I already owned it. The problem is it has wheels in the back, and the drainage hole is at an angle between the wheels. My question is, Is there a way to make a manifold for it or should I just get another cooler. I'd rather not but if I have to, what choice do I have? The only way I can figure to do it is with pvc and give the manifold itself a bit of a platform to sit on to try and make it level with the drainage hole. Would this even work? I tend to think not. And it would leave a lot of good sugars in the half inch or so around the bottom of the cooler I would think. Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!
