Had this idea to try to convert a water heater into a brew kettle. Anybody thought about this before?
Don't think gas or electric makes much difference, but gas should be more efficient... The heater is already insulated, so that should be helpful...
With a standard water heater, i should be able to make 30-40 gal at a time...
Opinions? Anyone think of any reason NOT to try this?
P.S. This would be for my frat, we have a few brewers here and we go through a LOT of beer, so this would be great... hmmm... but then we need to find fermenters to handle these volumes... any suggestions?
