This weekend I've made a new copper manifold for my mash tun. I incorporated a union joint for easy removal and installation. I soldered all the joints together except for the middle ones for easy cleaning and drying. Hope you enjoy!

Hmm...I only see four unsoldered joints, leaving a whole lot of elbows and tees soldered together with pipe sections behind and between. Considering you're never going to be able to force a brush throughout that plumbing, I question the "easy cleaning" bit. I'd definitely never let that manifold dry after use before doing the best you can to clean it up first. Hope you have a pump!
Cheers!
What is this 'brush' thing you speak of, and why use it on a mash tun? I have never used anything except the hose to clean mine, and it looks better than the day I made it. Take it out of the grain bed, spray it off.
