That would take 2 lifetimes to roll 25lbs!

I've read about doing this before. Did you modify the blades in any way? Does it actually do a consistant crush?

Coffee Urns... ya know the kind that they use at large functions... when I extract-brewed I used two... they stayed at a constent 170 after reaching temprature. so I would turn them on and when the light came on; I added my grains, up to 2 Lbs in one.... It usually stopped in the right range for steeping... I would check it and if needed plug it back in... the other one I would use for sparging water....
NEW PLAN: I just bought a 60 cup one and I am going to try to use in as the heater for a RIMS system.... I have already tested it and it also "sets" at about 170 degrees... I now need to build my copper coil and see if it will actually work...

Interesting! If I hadn't recently bought a Corona I'd consider this!

I used the wand-blender/stick-blender type deal last brew. Whips up some serious froth in the wort before pitching. Started further down but once you get it near the surface it really starts injecting O2 in there.

I use my son's red wagon to move my fermenters. It holds two of the large vittle vaults perfectly. Great way to move around 20g batches.

You missed the obvious. Sounds like you ferment in Vittle's Vaults.
