  I took another reading, it was rather hard to tell, but somewhere between 1.04 and 1.05, closer
  to .05 I think... and a green fungus seems to be growing. I'd say I screwed this one up. Here
  is a pictu...

  It's plastic... and it's definitely on tight, have checked that probably a dozen times hoping
  that was it.

  The yeast I used was the Ringwood ale Wyeast #1187. The OG was 1.05 when it asked for 1.061. It
  is fermenting at 68.4 degrees. My only question was I did the brewing outside, and it was in
  the high 30...

  I did my first all grain Sunday night. As of now I still have seen no indications of
  fermentation. I was a little off on my temps, but not hugely, and my OG was only .01 off. Is it
  too early to worry ...

  Finally bit the bullet and did my first AG, a clone of Magic Hat's Blind Faith IPA, using the
  70QT Coleman Xtreme cooler I converted with a PITA to make copper manifold. It worked pretty
  well. I did m...

  Thanks, had read that but it seems all the images I have seen on here have all the pipes
  drilled or slotted. Is leaving the outer pipes solid still the recommended method or has actual
  practice shown ...

  I think I have the cooler and keg setup figured out. My last question is about my manifold; I
  scrapped the slots and started over with individual 1/16th of an inch holes on the bottom half
  of the pipe...

  I tightened it pretty tight, but I don't think tight enough to cause the leak. On the cooler
  it's because the hole for the drain was slightly damaged and elongated, so I filled it with the
  silicone. S...

  I decided I want to make the jump to all-grain and bought everything I need. I bought a Zydeco
  (Sp) kit to convert a keg and a cooler to a keggle and mash tun respectively. Of course, both
  leaked. I s...

  I am going to batch sparge the first time, but do want to be able to fly sparge as well. I
  actually have the manifold designed, it's the actual valves to both keg and cooler I'm not sure
  of. That page...
