I just got this 60 quart pot with a strainer that came with it, it looks like this.
I don't have a mash tun or anything yet, and was curious if I could just simply put my grains into a mesh net in this strainer, then add the hot water to this pot and steep the grains like that over my propane burner if I lose heat. Then add sparge water afterwards. Then just simply lift out the strainer with the net and grains inside.
Do you think this would work ok? Any advice would be appreciated.
I want to build a cooler mash tun, just haven't got around to it yet. Thanks.
