as i'm getting close to finishing up my orders/purchases for my AG setup, i am looking to making/buying a manifold of some sort for my 10gal igloo cooler.. i'm planning on doing batch sparging (at least for the foreseeable future) and had heard that a braid/manifold is a better setup than a FB (i forget where) so i am mostly debating between a SS braid or somesort of homemade mainifold..
i know its been talked to death but for this type of cooler do many of you have strong preferences on what to use for batch sparging? i kinda like the cpvc design on jmo88's MT:

though i wasn't sure if it was really worth the effort as opposed to a nice heavy duty bazooka screen.. thoughts on your experieces?
