Today I'm brewing my 382nd batch using a braid.  It works so well that I've never considered anything else.

Denny...in those 382 batches, how many times would you say you've changed out the braid?

Not Denny, but I'm pretty sure the answer will be zero

Never!  Same braid for all the batches, nearly 12 years.

If only there was a website set up with pictures and explanations for what you do and why, and then you could put a link to it in your signature file so people could just go look . . .  ;D
You guys knew I was joking right?  Because Denny has a website set up with pics and explanations that he links to in his sig? Too subtle?

I appreciate the links though, especially yours DS - I've got the same cooler that I want to try mashing with, so seeing how you did it is nice.

It can't possibly work unless it's Yellow, Round, and with a False Bottom

I have a modified Denny setup. In a blue cooler.

I live in the UK, and everyone it's weird, but they all want to know how I built it given that it works so well.
