Marc my wheels are always spinning LOL. I have thought about keggle just haven't found one for right price. At this point most of my brewing is 5 gal. I know if I go with 15 g kettle I should try for taller rather than wider to avoid too much boil off.
I have a chugger pump in the cart for great price from one of the sponsors from site but need to upgrade kettle and burner first so not sure if I''ll pull trigger on pump yet.
I know I want low pressure burner because I like how quite they run just not sure if I'll spend a little more for fancy or just go for function.

I have done 11 gallon batches with my Keggle, which is 15.5 gallons. So to end up with 11 gallons, I start of with Pre Boil amount close to 13 gallons. And that pushes the limit for hot break. You have to use foam control or a spray bottle for hot break to be careful.
I have a bayou classic 16 gallon kettle that came with a false bottom. It works great for 5 And 10 gallon batches. Good for the price as well.

Is there any advantages of going HD kettle with clad bottom over they economy pots other then economy ones could easily dent if dropped.
I ended up going with the SQ14. Haven't had a chance to use it though. My batches before now have been 5 gallon extract. One boil over and I got banished to the garage. Stupid boil overs. I mean it's not like we had to get a new stove...oh...we did. Hmm.
