Ive been lucky enough to find three old 30gallon copper geysers. Besides being very shiny and pretty they're big enough for 20 gallon batches.
Is it possible to weld a stainless steel fitting to a copper jacket ?
Will I need TIG/MIG or will a regular inverter/arc welder work ?
Or is brazing / acetylene a better option ?
I currently use a 10gallon MLT and fly-sparge. Are there any aspects I should consider with regards the manifold or is it just a bigger version of my current one ? If I remember there is a limit to the aspect ratio of the MLT before efficeincy starts to suffer - can someone tell me what this limit is ?
Are there any other considerations for copper or large systems ?
