What is the easiest way to make a fly sparge system for a rectangle cooler?
Pretty much exactly the way mine is designed.Use copper and solder with lead free solder. Drill holes on the top side evenly along the tubes. Make sure it is level when used so you get even distribution. Keep the water 1 to 2 inches above the grain at all times when sparging to prevent channeling.
The bottom manifold should be slotted copper (slots on the bottom side) soldered the same way. Some brewers like to not solder the bottom manifold for easy cleaning. It is your choice but design it so it will not come apart during use.
