My turkey fryer is being delivered tomorrow and I have found a pretty reasonably priced 5 gal round beverage cooler at Lowes.
My question is should I get a false bottom (I'm in Cincinnati and will be at Listermann's to pick up my grains anyway) or should I make my own manifold?
The cost of the false bottom is about $21 and I haven't really priced out the cost for a manifold.
I was going to use the SS braid shown in the easy 10 gal MLT conversion thread, but I have since read that there are some disadvantages when fly sparging and using the SS braid.
My other option is to make a manifold using CPVC/copper, but I am concerned about cleaning it, should I glue the thing together or leave it 'loose' so that I can take it apart to clean? Any thoughts would be appreciated, thanks!
