Hi,
Long time visitor to the forum, and it took until now to pose a question I couldn't already find an answer to, so I had to create an account....
With that being said, I came across a 20 gallon steam jacketed kettle, completely self contained, 220V. Southbend KECT-20 is the make/model. It came out of a school that closed and I was going to use it for homebrew purposes, but am finishing up my DVM and don't have the time or space to utilize it right now. I plugged it in once and it brought 10 gallons of water to boil in about 15 minutes, so I added another 10 gallons and the whole 20 gallons was boiling in about a half hour. It is composed of all stainless steel parts, the kettle portion tilts with a pour spout, while the control portion remains stationary. It came with a heavy duty basket (BIAB?) and a lid.
I know what I paid for it... but what is something like this worth today, and would it have greater value to a homebrewer or would a guy be able to sell it in another market?
Thanks.
