So I've been batting around ideas for a nice, easy way to press the grains after the mash. I'm thinking of using 2 stacked fermentation buckets. The top bucket will have some holes drilled in the bottom so when you place the bag in the top bucket and press, the wort will collect in the bottom bucket. My concern is that the mash temp of 150~ish might be too hot for the bucket and could either a) warp/melt the bucket or b) pick up some off flavors from the high temp plastic.
So my question: Does anyone know what temperature fermentation buckets are rated for?
