I'm planning on building a single tier brew stand and have a 10 gallon igloo cooler for a MLT.
I was planning on having an HLT (converted Sanke), MLT (cooler), and a Keggle - in that order - with propane burners under the HLT and Keggle.
This raises some concerns for me in the use of a cooler as an MLT. How much residual heat will be coming from the burner?
I'm thinking of building a shield out of 1/16 sheet metal around each burner. Will that be enough, or will there still be enough residual heat from the top of the burner to cause harm to the cooler?
