Guys,
I'm new to the forum but have been brewing on and off for a few years. I've got a 5 gallon rubbermaid water cooler type (round) mash tun and other than the capacity have been pretty happy with it. I want to upgrade to 10 gallon capacity and can get a similar 10 gallon IGLOO from Walmart for $40 and just use the hardware (false bottom and valve) from my 5 gallon unit. Do you think this will work? Will I have issues with the smaller false bottom sized for the 5 gallon tun? Thoughts?
