Hi all,
I'm fairly new and doing kits exclusively at the minute with very minor tweaks like dry hops/adding honey instead of sugar.
I do plan on building everything required for all grain brewing over the next few months. I'm not in any rush to get everything finished and operational and budget isn't a major constraint but I do like the idea of mucking about and doing it all myself.
I was thinking of beginning with a mash tun which I can use for mini mashing my kits initially. The obvious choice is a cool box unless anyone can suggest something more fitting?
The question then is what size to go for? Although it will be mini mash initially I want to make it so that I can do a standard 23 litre once everything is complete. So for a 23litre wort, what would you recommend as a mash tun capacity? I do plan on fitting a double bottom as well.
Thanks for your help
