8 gallon kettle, worth it?

Sorry, missed that. Is it really going to be another $100 in shipping though....

Thanks.

Actually, between dollar conversion (0.70 per 1.00), shipping (usually $50+), and taxes and duty (another $20 at least), it actually very feasibly could become $100 more.

I'm another with a 7.5G turkey fryer setup, doing fullboils for 5.5G batches. I actually start with about 7G in the BK, boiling down to 6G, and manage to do it without a boilover. Repeat after me- Fermcap is my friend! Remember, after you get the hotbreak, you can cut the gas way back to maintain a slow steady rolling boil.
Would I take a 10G BK? You bet- will someone donate one?
