Hi all,
Ive got a couple BIAB AG batches under my belt that Ive done inside on my stove with a smallish pot, its been a huge PITA, due to my pot size I've had to split the boil into two which is obviously less than ideal.
As such, I've been shopping around for a propane kit that comes with a burner/stand & pot to take my operations outside (besides being able to do full boils my wife will be extremely happy to get this process out of the house). I have a keg that I will eventually be converting to a brew pot, but in the meantime I'd like to get a kit with a 30ish qt aluminum one that I could use until the keg is converted and then re-purpose later on. I'm hoping to get something in the $60-80 range, I've come across this one from Menards in a couple of threads on here but haven't really seen that anyone has actually purchased it:

If anyone does indeed own this, how has your experience been with it?
Does it have a safety shutoff? Is it easy to bypass?
How is the stand build quality? In a perfect world I'd like to purchase something that could accommodate my converted keg without modifications.
I'm open to other options if anyone has experience with something else that they would recommend.
Thanks in advance.
