My wife bought me this kit (http://www.brewersbestkits.com/equipment.html) from Brewer's Best. I'm very excited to start brewing! The kit does not include a boiler pot, so my mother-in-law wanted to buy me a pot to go with it. Unfortunately, I think she might have been a bit misguided - she was told that I would need a 20-30 gallon pot, but couldn't find one, so she bought me two 12 gallon pots.
Bear in mind that I am an absolute newbie here. I will probably begin by brewing from kits. What I am wondering is if it would be possible to still use the pots in question by boiling both simultaneously and halving the recipe (so that each pot gets exactly half of the ingredients) and then combining the contents in the fermenter.
If this isn't possible, then I guess I'll just have to buy a new pot, which wouldn't be the end of the world.
