Went with the high end mash tun with the bottom drainage and false bottom from brewbuilder. Bit over my budget but I know I'll just end up regretting not doing it if I get something different....

Agreed. And if you did get a bigger one (or decide to quit brewing), this one will still be worth quite a lot of money.

I have simple advice, go big I went 60L and can Herms 11Kg grain weight up to 60L FV. I put drains in three thermopots as I am fairly handy and like that sort of stuff, if diy or drilling and cutting steel is not your thing just spend the money and have it done properly.

Just want to provide some closure, I ended up getting the high end mash tun from Brewbuilder and it looks amazing!!! Cost more than I initially wanted to spend but I know I'll benefit in the long run as it will last.

For those already using one, I have started a seperate thread asking about how to account for the space under the FB in calculations. I'd massively appreciate any further advice.

Thanks as always
