My girlfriend has a great heart and fulfilled my request of getting me a bigger kettle to brew with this Christmas, but she went a little overboard. She purchased this huge kettle that would be a great addition to any large batch brewer. It was custom built by the guy she got it from. It comes with a custom built false bottom and a ball valve spigot. Will not attempt to ship, and want to get at least what she paid for it, which is about $200.
