Hello all, I am looking for high quality mesh basket/kettle combos for a BIAB system. Right now I used a keggle with a direct fire, temperature controlled system (using a honeywell water tank heater solenoid).
The only one I have found so far is this:
https://conical-fermenter.com/BK18TW-TI-EL1-BIB-104-18-gal-Brew-In-Bag-Kettle.html
I really like that one because it has a port to put a heating element in if I ever wanted to go e-BIAB, but comes capped off so I can use it with my direct-fire propane setup right now.
The downside with that one is if you look carefully it's not a mesh basket, it's more like a regular pot with tons of little holes drilled into it. I was advised by Tyler, the Stout rep, that you should use a bag with it. That's not a deal breaker, but I would ideally like to stop using mesh bags.
Any other high quality/higher end combos out there? Thoughts? Experiences?
