My HLT is a Marine grade rectangular cooler that made it through 100 gallons in about a year. I have since moved and broke it out to brew for the first time in about a year.
The cooler is cracked. I am probably going to have to use an improvised insulated bottling bucket for an HLT tomorrow. I would like to build a new HLT though. My HLT has a 3500W heating element a brass outflow valve and a site tube and temp sensor as well installed. I am looking for suggestions for a good vessel 40 quart or larger to rebuild my HLT, hopefully something more durable.
