Hey just won my fantasy football league at work. I am going to get around $150 as prize money which I think will go towards brewing some how but I'm not sure what to get. I brew 5 gallon batches all grain brew in a bag. I use the 9 gal aluminum pot that came with the turkey fryer. I have 2 bargain fittings weldless bulkheads and Bobby M sight glass that I have not installed yet. I'm thinking right now I could try to track down a 15.5 gallon keg and make it into a keggle or I could just drill my turkey fryer but I sort of like the idea of a bigger pot so I can make bigger batches or just have less chance of boil over. So option 1 would probably include $50 or more to try to get a keg. I mill my grain with a pasta roller converted into a grain mill right now which works but is slow and might be falling apart. So I could get some sort of new roller mill plus the keg if I stretch the budget a bit maybe a barley crusher or cereal killer or something else. I keg my beer right now I have a chest freezer with 3 kegs in it. I have a total of six kegs. I use picnic taps. The freezer sits out in the garage so looks are not terribly important but for the 150 I could Probably convert to a decent keezer. I am also open to other suggestions sorry for the long post
