Hello. I have searched this forum and have not found many who have made a pony keg brew kettle. I have a 7.75 gal keg I would like to use as a brew kettle and wanted to see if anyone had a picture of theirs so I can get an idea how to build it and where to put the valves etc. I am planning on brewing 3 gallon full grain batches so it should be plenty big enough for my needs. The keg I have is the same diameter of a normal keg just shorter. There is a ridge toward the bottom that I am wondering if I have to drill my hole above or below and if that would be a problem if the valve had to be a little higher to avoid that bump. I wanted to put in weldless valves. And maybe a sight glass but I am not sure if they make one that small. Just wanted to get your suggestions and see others 1/4 size keggle if you have one
