I'm going to be upgrading from my simple zap-pap tun using uninsulated buckets to a cooler system. However, I don't know what type of cooler I want to use.
What would people say are the pros and cons of the tall, round coolers (eg. 10-gallon Rubbermaid) versus the lower, rectangular coolers (eg. 60-quart Igloo) for use as a mash tun?
I can think of some regarding things such as footprint/portability as well as more technical such as the thickness of the grain bed, but not having used either system, I am obviously ignorant to the real pluses and minuses of each.
Thanks!
