Thanks for the info. I like to only buy things once. I might spend more, but in the end I have a great product that usually lasts a long time. Buying a lesser product twice can be pricey! I think any of today's better mills will last a very long time, but like I said before, I got to go with the...

I'm looking at the MM2-2.0 with the hardened steel rollers, base, hopper, and hopper extension...if you don't mind me asking, where and how much did you pay for it? Looks like a beast, and I tend to like the overkill!

Germany US Belgian England Ireland There are some beers from other countries that I like, but for the most part, I prefer the top three the most in my list.

I also used Mastercam when I was a machine tool programmer (mostly milling centers). Solidworks has surfaces as well, but like you said...it has a learning curve. I have heard many say that it's definitely not intuitive! I have used it for quite a while now and I am used to it. The first few...

That's what we designers like to hear....exact replicas...scaling is easy. We use SolidWorks. What are you using?

I'm a ME for an Aerospace Company. We design and manufacture fuel management and measurement systems for various rotor-craft, fixed wing, and ground (AAV) vehicles for both commercial and military applications.

I'm a Mechanical Engineer, but the company that I'm working for now calls me a Design Drafter...who cares as long as they pay me!

Good job man! I'm lucky enough to have all the tools I need at the machine shop, but it's good to see some ingenuity for those who aren't as lucky! You'll like the ball valve from BargainFittings....I just got a s/s one for a new MLT I'm making.

Count me in! Thanks for a chance to win!!

Can you please give details on how you did this? You now have me wondering how many coolers have wort soaked insulation. Thanks.

Thanks.....ordered.

Good idea...I'll look into one online. Thanks

Thanks for the details and photo. That braid does look like a beast! I assume you didn't have to coil something inside to help prevent crushing.....looks very clean. I'm off to Lowes to pick me up a water heater supply line!

Is the 3/4" water heater braid the actual size of the braid, or the fittings? For instance, if using the water heater braid, what size nipple is needed to attach it to?

Did you go with a fully threaded nipple, or a partially threaded nipple? I like the design and I'm planning on converting the same cooler this weekend. Thanks!

Any idea why brewers batch sparging are using these multi-piped manifolds instead of a single like yourself? I would think that your efficiency is just as good...similar to a braid.

I may give that PEX pipe a try. I worry about crushing a braid while stirring even though many have said they never have a problem. The single pipe obviously will be easy to clean and I wouldn't have to worry about smashing it with the spoon or the weight of the grain compacting it. Thanks for...

Now....that PEX pipe has caught my interest! Did you slot or drill holes in it? Unusual to see the one pipe and not a multi-piped manifold. How is that working for you? A false bottom is probably a no-go for my rectangular cooler.

Thanks Mark...I use the same screen as you, but in my brew pot. It works great to filter out the some of the trub and whole hops, but I have had problems with pellet hops clogging it up. I have gone to using hop bags now...much better. If I end up using this water heater braid I'll post how it...
