Building a HERMs stand and wanted an insulated mash tun so came up with this. It's a 8g pot (just aluminum and cheap) that I put a weldless connection in the bottom. A wrapped the whole thing including the bottom in flexible return air duct tin. Made this about 1.5" thick. I then filled the cavity with spray foam. Appears to have worked. I am going to use silver duct tape (the metal stuff not duck tape) to seal from the tin to the pot to prevent any liquids all though it is filled solid just feel like it will be more sanitary. Going to use rigid insulation on the pot lid.
