Easy to make! You don't need a fancy plasma cutter (if you got one use it though!) Check out the video link to see how to chop a top using your basic angle grinder and cut off wheel.

Price: $75.00
Pros: Large kettle conversion to help with the fact of no boil overs.
Cons: Takes longer to heat on outdoor burner, and lost about quarter gallon at the bottom.
Recommended? Yes

Comments: This keg converted to a kettle was a great idea from the home brew store. We have had great success with the kettle with no boil overs but at the same time lose a bit of wort after transferring to the fermenting bucket. Overall a great product and worth the money spent as I move from kits to all grain brewing.

Comments: Converted 2 15.5 kegs to boil kettles. I got these for free so the only thing I had to pay for so far is the Mash Tun

Comments: It works well, and is quite common for all grain brewers. It may be ugly, but it's quite functional. Some people polish theirs to make them shiny.

Comments: Nice, durable, stainless, affordable. Did a weldless conversion myself with the weld-b gone kit. Works well enough for the $44, and using an ultimate false bottom which I'm still uncertain about.

Comments: What other way is there to brew? A friend of mine has a Sabco Brew Magic and it is fairly nice. My system has a few upgrades, including the "no milk crate" upgrade via a single tier design.

Comments: I have converted two kegs to use as a kettle and a hot liquor tank. They are so awesome that I migrated to ten gallon batches several years ago.

Price: $70.00
Recommended? Yes

Comments: greatest thing ever. I can do either 5 or 10 gal batches and i dont have to worry about boil overs. When i use a hopstrainer hanging down into the wort, i get crappy utilization with smaller batches because it cant reach low enough. Otherwise its a cheap and really effective way do to boils

Comments: I love my keggles. I use weldless spiggots and thermometers and wouldn't go back if my life depended on it. I have had trouble getting the weldless fittings to seal properly, but I always get it to work out in the end.
