SWMBO got me a Backyard Classic turkey fryer from Walmart for Xmas. (I would like to think that this was a very thoughtful gift on her part, and that she was truly thinking of me when she bought it, but realistically it's so that she no longer has to endure the smell of boiling wort)!
Couple of questions? I do extract brews with steeping grains, so I normally am only boiling 2 gallons of wort. Can I still use my smaller stainless steel stockpots with the turkey fryer, or will I risk boilovers? The turkey fryer comes with a relatively large, but aluminum stockpot. Do people use these, or is it much better to get stainless steel?
