So here is where I stand right now. I am saving up to make a brewstand and I'm at a crossroads. A guy is willing to plasma cut off the top of these kegs, clean them up, weld in 1/2" NPT tubes, one male and one female (for valve, and thermometer). He will charge $130 a piece for all this work, including keg. I attached a pic of the three he will be using. They are in great shape, minus the dried on grass he rolled them though
So... should i get these and basically be at $190 per kettle (with keg, work, valve, and thermometer) or save up and buy blichmann or polarware kettles? Granted the MLT will cost a little more for me because I will have to buy a false bottom.
I will also be purchasing a blichmann top tier to use these on, so will they be to tall? Any thoughts, guidance, rants, are welcome!
