I have an igloo square cooler mashtun that I use with a bazooka tube. The bazooka is not ideal in keeping out all the grain. Even after vourlofing plenty I find I have to use a colander when pouring off into the kettle too keep excess grain out.
The reason I'm writing this is because I have to replace my cooler it got warped to the point it doesn't close so I lose a lot of heat. So either I get a round cooler with a screw top or a square cooler with a latch.
for the round cooler I can get the false bottom.
I'd like to hear what you guys have and what works best.
I do only 5 gallon batches. I guess if I get the round it would be the 10 gal
