I saw that thread up there and was pretty jealous. I'm wondering if anyone knows where to find those here in the US and how much they cost.

Aren't they just commercial coffee urns?

Yeah, I was only finding 100 cup ones though; which is only 23ish litres / 6ish gallons.

That guy was using 10gallon urns.

I use a 30L urn both as my HLT and kettle and it never misses a beat. Too easy and I get a great rolling boil with its exposed element and camping mat wrapped around it for insulation which I take off when I'm chilling the wort.

edit - btw I doubt a 100 cup urn is 6 gallons as they are not talking about real 8 ounce cups. I forget what the measurement is but it's less.

The brits and aussies are all on 220v standard house current which makes a big warming pot possible. Here in the great USA, we are stuck on 110. If you find a good source, pleae let me know.
