Hey guys, I originally posted this over in DIY/Build, but I started thinking maybe this is the more appropriate place for it. If not, I'll be happy to delete this thread.
I'm in the transition to AG, and I'm attempting to build a MLT using this 48qt Coleman cooler. I already have a 1/2" NPT bazooka screen I'm planning on using inside the cooler to separate the wort from the grain, but I'm looking for the easiest way to complete the build. I was considering using this bulkhead, through the wall of the cooler at the factory drain spout hole, and connect a 1/2" ball valve to the outside and the bazooka screen to the female end of the bulkhead on the inside. Does anyone know if this would be feasible?
Alternatively, does anyone personally recommend a specific way of building a MLT from this particular cooler? I was originally going to opt for a cheap and easy build, like this HBA method, but to me that just seems like a temporary option.
Thanks in advance, everyone
