Concerning manifolds, is there a critical difference between making slots as opposed to making holes? I made a cheap C-PVC manifold and I just drilled 1/16" holes all along the bottom, so far (after two batches, one was wheat) I haven't had any problems with it. You can see it in my profile...

I am a n00b. My question is, excluding the obvious possible contamination, what are the downsides to secondary?

Awesome thanks Bob.

Ahhh i see now. I've been trying to find a long stainless steel ladle for about two weeks now. None of the major retailers carry anything longer than 12" it's very frustrating. I've seen some in an E.C. Kraus catalog but they are whoa expensive. Any suggestions where I can find one on the cheap...

Pro's and Con's anybody? I went the cheap route.

My mash tun. A five gallon upright igloo cooler.

I may not be a brew master yet but I'm damn sure a beerpong master. Anyone who doesn't know or hasn't played beer pong, needs to.

It's missing a cap on the far right stem and the holes are only up so that you can see them. It's very elementary but also very cheap. Hopefully in the future, I can find a four pronged fitting so that I can add a stem in the middle. The C-PVC is 1/2" and the holes are 1/16".
