I purchased a Bayou Classic 10 gal kettle from Amazom.com back in January. The thermometer that came with it is defective. I have emailed back and forth with Bayou and it has been determined that since I bought it from Amazon, I have to get a replacement from them. The only thing that Amazon offers is to return the entire purchase, kettle and all.
So, with that in mind I am returning everything back to Amazon and going to purchase a new kettle. I am asking for recommendations for a good brand.
Should I go with Spike Brewing, SS, try another Bayou Classic or something else? Should I get one with a thermometer or use a clip on style or digital? I was considering one with out the thermometer, using a false bottom with a basket to help with removing the grain bag. Any thoughts will be greatly appreciated. Seriously considering buying direct rather than Amazon for this purchase.
Thank you.
