I was thinking of heating my mash with steam, approx 55 gallons of mash

now my boiler I will heat the water with to produce the steam is about 50L, so I was wondering if when the steam has travvel throu the mash, can I then return it to the water thank with a copper pipe led to the bottom of the boiler and cut open 2-3 cm ( like a thumper pipe)?
