Hey guys,
On my way into work I was thinking about my eventual build of a mash tun. I've picked up some hardware to convert a cooler. I realized though that I have a few of the smaller (15g?) LME containers that were picked up from a LHBS. I could drill a hole and have the hardware installed pretty quick. However, I'm guessing I would need to insulate the tun so it didn't loose heat during the mash. Does anyone have any idea how much insulation would be needed? Does it sound worth while, or should I just wait until I buy a new cooler?
