2 keg system advice required

[john_bloy]

I have just received 2 used kegs and want to configure an all grain system, Any advice of the best ways to utilize the kegs?

Maybe, use one as a lauter tun and one as the brew kettle?

ideas?

I use one for a HLT, one (actually two) for a MLT and one as a boiler. You can see it in my gallery

Hey dude, did you get that 'speed hump' sign in Hawaii? Thats the only place i've ever seen one of those. That and the Maori/Easter Island head on your logo....Just thought I'd ask.
Mahalo, brah.

I use 2 kegs and a home depot cooler as the mash tun. I use one for HLT and the other as the Brew kettle. Works great. I just built a stand and need to buy a second burner so I can use my pump and wont need to do any heavy lifting.

That was what I was going to do, my only negative thought was I would be unable to do a stepped temperature mash using a cooler.

You could do a decoction to get stepped mashes with your cooler, or start off at a thick mash (1.0 qt/lb) and just add boiling water to step up in mashes, winding up with a thinner mash in the end.

Lol, They exist in Dekalb, IL too! I have never seen them outside Dekalb...They also have Speed Table signs, which I've not seen outside of that city.
