I currently have a Keggle that I converter for my BK, using propane. I will be getting another Keggle soon, that I plan on making into a HLT. I was thinking I would slowly switch to Electric at some point, so figured this would be a good place to start.
Here are the basic parts I was thinking, just for the heating portion. I already have a 30AMP outlet, so will need to make a cord to run from the Element to Plug. Then here is the rest, what are you thoughts, on why this would be good or bad? I will be heating around 10 - 12 gallons in that Keggle usually.
