My new mash tun screen

Postby TheMechwarrior » Thu Apr 02, 2015 6:06 pm

So a new 300L variable capacity tank arrived and it was time to build a screen for the new mash-tun.

Here's the drawing:

It consists of a base screen attached to a couple of supports.
There's also a replica top screen to sit on top to allow me to close off the openings a little if needed.

Here's a view of the completed product from the underside (still needs a clean):

Here's a view of the top:

Fingers crossed this does the job for me.

Cheers,

Mech.

The top of the outlet hole (side discharge) is roughly 75mm from the base, so I just rounded it up to 100mm.
