copper work

G

Any advice on copper soldering? I'm thinking about investing in a portable butane torch and some silver solder to build my plumming (taps from urn to mash tun etc). I've done a bit of arc welding and soldering with a soldering iron but not sure what I need to consider for this kind of work.

Where's the cheapest place to buy copper pipe, taps etc and what diametre is best? Or should I be using stainless? I'm planning on using the same material throughout the whole system (urn to tun, tun to kettle, kettle to fermenter etc).

Any tips greatly appreciated!
