I am in the process of going all grain. I am simply looking around for the cheapest stainless steel brewpot and propane burner. I have everything else, including a wort chiller and a 10 gallon rubbermaind converted cooler.
I wanted to start now with my existing 3 gallon pot and do a mini all grain batch of about 2 gallons. I figured it'd be better to make all my rookie mistakes that way and save money.
My question is:
Would using the 10 gallon Rubbermaid converted cooler as a mashtun for such a small amount affect temperatures? It would leave most of the cooler empty except for the small amount of grain.
