Well, I’d ask you about your lauter system. For me, don’t even use then anymore. But a handful,won’t hurt ya.

Rice hulls are very light in case you are wondering how much weight is necessary.  I don't use them, but if I had a
 Gatorade-type cooler I would.

FWIW....I have a Gatorade type cooler..meaning tall cylindrical type. No issues for me.
