I have a 12in. false bottom and a 10g rubbermaid cooler I'm trying to put together for a mash tun and it is a pain to get in. Is there an easy way to get it in (and later out to clean)? The easiest way I can think of to do it is to take the valve part apart so there isn't really anything sticking out in the inside but it is kinda a pain so I didn't know if there was an easier way.
Thanks, I appreciate the help!
 
I have the same rig and it works fine, I just have to tilt the false bottom a bit to get it around the barbed fitting.
