I've been looking and looking and haven't been able to find a picture of someone who might have done this. I'm new to All Grain so maybe it's not the best idea anyway. Here's what I'm thinking. I've got two round 10 gallon Rubbermaid drink coolers. One is for the MLT the other for the HLT.
I was thinking about installing a sparge coil in the top of the cooler lid that I could attach a hose through to on the top side of the lid. That way, once I get my rates set, I can have the MLT lid on and just sort of "set it and forget it." I would of course monitor it and such, but this would help keep heat in and debris and other stuff out.
I just bought a $40 spinning stainless steel sparge arm, but thought, if I could make one of these that's actually attached to the lid of the MLT that would work quite well.
Anyone done this before? I'm sure someone has, I just haven't seen a picture to help me get an idea of how to proceed. I was thinking a coil of copper/stainless tubing with tiny holes drilled all around that then is attached to a weldless type setup through the lid of the MLT. I could then attach tubing from my HLT to the top and let it go.
Any ideas/suggestions/photos/etc. would be great. Thanks and BTW this is my first post! Glad to be here. Seem to have found a great community with lots of helpful folks.
