DIY malt pipe help

[Centiweasel]

Hi all,

I want to make a malt pipe for my set up,

I have bought a false bottom thing from Ali express, I think it is for the robobrew, here is an image:

So now I am looking for a plastic bucket type FV that I can cut the bottom out and put this in,

It measures 29.5 cm in diameter, the buckets I currently have are a bit too small, didn’t want to cut around the false bottom to make it fit in, I would rather buy a bigger bucket,

Does any one know of any buckets that could fit a 29.5 cm disk inside at the bottom?

Thanks
Chris

I made a grain basket out of a 20 litre pale but drilled a ship load of holes in the base of the pale, if you don't want to drill then buy a piece of perforated s/s plate and cut it to size with an angle grinder.

I've got Youngs' 30L fermenting buckets and the bottom of those measure 31.5cm (outer). Sounds like that would take your false bottom.

This looks like the one: 33 Litre Fermentation Vessel and lid (Full Colour-Graduated)
