Looking to get into a fairly fully featured brew kettle. Have other 5 gal pots.
Will be brewing mostly 5 gal batches, some extract, and moving into AG. (Have cooler MT but not used it yet).
Size: 10 or 15 gal (undecided)
Features: Thermometer and ball valve.
Also: want horizontal couplers as smaller batches might be done.
Will be using propane. 50k BTU burner.
-is the Blichmann worth it?
-how about Spike Brewing, or SS brewtech?
-(are the above really better than the megapots?)
-what about scorching risk when using propane?
Let me know. Would be willing to buy the Blichmann if it REALLY is worth it, but I would like to know why first, and if I can make just as good of beer with a cheaper kettle then why not!
Cheers,
Wooden
