i've used a mesh braid for mashing so far with decent success, although lately i've had it floating up a bit, and i feel like i may be gettign some channeling going on so i decided to give a cpvc a try. its all 1/2".
all cut and together in MLT. not perfect, but it fits pretty good. i used some flexible pvc (rated to 200, but i forget the name) to run to the coupling. i used the threaded barb from my mesh braid and forced it on, worked pretty good.
here are the slits i cut in the bottom, they are roughly 1/3 of the way up the tubing.
this is how much water was left after a practice run....i would estimate it at about a quart?
not bad for about 90 min of work and about 10 bucks. hope it works out better, we'll know for sure next week!
