A friend and myself are making the jump from extract to all grain very soon and I just had a couple newbie questions.
We are looking at wort chillers and debating between a plate and a immersion chiller. What does everyone think works best and is easiest to use?
I am building a mash tun out of a 10 gallon insulated cooler (home depot kind). Of all the videos I have watched it seems easy enough but none mention anything about a false bottom which I have seen brought up on threads here. What is the purpose of the false bottom, and is it easy to install/build?
Thanks in advance for any replies.
Cheers
