After comparing the price of building my own mash tun to buying one, I've decided to make a little project out of it and do it myself.
I've been looking around for budget water coolers, and have noticed that rectangular coolers are significantly cheaper than the standard round ones I see in the "make your own mash tun" videos.
Would there be any negatives to buying something like the following link?

It's hard to tell from the product description how well it insulates compared to something like this, but I assume they would be similar if not the same.

What do you think? I'd be stoked if I could make a decent mash tun for under $50... Any and all advice is welcome Thanks for reading.
