I have looked around online and have seen several different methods of producing a homemade MLT from a 48qt rubbermaid cooler. Most of what I saw seemed to be one of two methods, method 1.) using a ball valve and fittings and a stainless steel hose braid clamped down onto a barb fitting and method 2.) creating a manifold from copper tubing utilizing the same ball valve and fittings as the previous method.
My question is, which method is better? Method one seems to be FAR simpler (and cheaper) but does it's simplicity mask unreliability as compared to the other method or are both methods similar in function and result? I want to build something that will last me a while and will not need upgrading for the forseeable future.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks.
