Good day,
I'm looking make the move from all extract to partial mash brewing. I'd like to try to make a lautering system using a camping cooler, but the problem is that there are not a lot of options in terms of actual coolers to choose from. (I live in Japan).
At the local hardware store I could only find one (I've attached pictures). Can I turn use this cooler for lautering, or should I keep searching? Notice the drainage slots at the bottom--I don't know if these slots will help or hurt with the lautering process. Also, I don't know the dimensions of the cooler, but I could easily go and get that information.
Any opinions?
Thank you for your help.
