Convert Propane Tank into Kettle?

[radioactive2010]

I've seen that old kegs are converted into kettles, but I haven't been able to find anything about converting old propane tanks into kettles. I've got a 10 gallon propane tank that I thought could be a good sized kettle once it's emptied and cleaned out of the propane. Thoughts on this conversion?

Aren't gas tanks made of carbon steel?

Zinc plated carbon steel, if my 40 gallon propane tank is indicative...

Cheers!

Make a nice fire pit from the tank, instead.

You don't want to brew beer in a kettle made from a propane tank. Unless you enjoy lots of iron flavor.
