Depends on what will work with your existing setup, with mine I kept the tee piece at the back to aid the syphon effect, also had a length of tube the otherside of the tap to again aid the syphon.

I would question though if your existing manifold is large enough for the new 70 ltr pot?????. If it were me, I would buy a 3m length of copper tube, 8 x 45 degree elbows, 5 x Tees, a couple of elbows and maybe a crossover piece and make yourself another manifold to get the best efficiency you can.

Hi all, Managed to get my manifold slits cut and put together and I have a small piece of copper pipe bent to fit to the back of the tap, all tap parts received from BES online next day delivery. Just need to put it altogether and test it out for leaks and dead space ahead of its Maiden Brew. Looking at getting a Solar pump to make transfering water from HLT to Mashtun a bit easier :wink:

Slits cut (a PITA as usual) :evil:
