It looks like greenlee might make a 10 gauge punch, but i'm sure it's hella expensive. That should do up to 3.4mm. Thoughts?
Background on why I'm asking, so I don't do something unnecessarily stupid:
I have a 55 gallon stainless steel brewery transfer tank that's about 3 mil (maybe 4 at the bottom). I'm looking at turning it into a mash tun. The NHC has inspired me to try experimenting, so i want to do "design of experiments" style brewing. I'd do a single large mash (25-30 gallons) and then vary the kettle hops, the yeast, and/or fermentation temperatures.
To do this, I first need to cut a hole in the bottom and attach fittings.
Side note - I thought about using this tank as an fermenter, but there is some pitting in the bottom, so it definitely won't work for that. I'd also have to make 50 gallons of the same beer...and I'm way too ADD for that (I've never made 50 gallons of the same recipe, let alone 50 gallons of the same thing in a sitting).
