Both 10 gallon pots are now gone, but the 8 gallon is still available.

I'd like to sell my 5 gallon all-grain setup, as I've moved to 10 gallon batches. I don't want to deal with shipping these, so local pickup only in Madison, WI. $125 for an 8 gallon pot with lid, dip tube, and thermometer -- I used this as a hot liquor tank $150 for a 10 gallon pot with...

Yep, the chugger heads work fine on an 815.

If money were no object, a kettle from Stout or maybe Brewer's Hardware. But I'd go with a Sanke over any other pot.

The stainless brewing chiller is also out of stock, but the site says they'll have more in the "middle of May". Before you settle for the 3/8, it might be worth sending them a quick e-mail to see if they'll have more soon...

Holy cow -- that's some serious flame. Anyway, glad to hear you were able to sort out the low flow issue!

Is this the regulator? If so, the instructions say:

With that much line, is it possible you triggered the regulator's flow limiting device?

Interesting -- Last month I ordered a test part from this vendor (dailyappliance2010) and it was solid so last week I placed an order for another $70 in fittings (which is about half the price I was finding elsewhere). That's a bummer that the parts have been inconsistent -- hopefully I get...
