New 15 gallon Kettle- Economical Options

I am looking at getting another 15 gallon kettle to brew outside this summer in place of my 120v Brew Kettle I normally use to brew indoors. I've bought a couple economical kettles in the past and ran into BAD rust issues even after 3 attempts at passivation. I would really like to go with a Spike Kettle but have seen some people recommend the Concord kettles as a solid economical option.

Any recommendations ?

 

Keggle? I got decommissioned kegs from a local brewery for $45 each. Pretty economical!

 

Yep got both of my kegs from craigslist for 30 bucks each and added valves and no weld thermometers!

 

can't go wrong with concord if you build it your self, strong pots

 

Really looking at a kettle, I figure this is the best long-term option.

 

not all keggles are the same, stainless is a must for keeping clean and ask someone who has a set up first

 

I got a cheap 15 gallon kettle from adventures in homebrewing. About 10 batches or so through it and I'm totally satisfied.

 

Absolutely. Search feebay for "Concord kettle". I have a 15 and 20 gallon. I'm shocked anyone would pay up for a Blichmann after using these.
