Hi guys, soon I want to make my first all grain beer.
1.First of all, I bought cooler as mash tun. ITs 40Qts coleman wheeled cooler is this not problem that bottom isnt square ?

2. I cant decide on filtering method. SS braid or manifold.
how do work ss braid ? because wholes are everywhere so how it is with dead space ? if wort will reach ss braid it will stop suck? or because its covered by grain durning sparging air dont come and ss braid can suck almost whole wort? Can someone explain it ?
3. If I will decide for manifold , I do not want use copper couse of this green poisonous stuff, its patina? I dont know correct name .
If manifold is made of copper how do you check for this green patina inside of the pipe ? its almost impossible to check pipes inside.
4. My own idea was to make something like false bottom, this coole have draining canal near siphon I wanted cover it by flat stainless plate with small holes. And screw thru it stainless pipe so it will suck wort from bottom of this canal. I dont know if I did explain this well.
How do you think guys it would work ? Or because it will suck wort from front it will have weak efficiency ?
Cheers!
