Starting to shop around for upgrading my kettles. Currently have 10gal aluminum BK & HLT with the ubiquitous orange rubbermaid mash tun. Ditching my Al BK, but keeping my cooler MT for 5 gallon or lower gravity 10gal batches and my Al HLT works just fine. I just want a larger BK & MT without having to worry about the plastic or aluminum oxide buffer.
Doing a basic look around, I'm liking the SS Brew Tech Kettles. Does anyone have any comments about the 15 or 20 gallon kettles for the good or bad? What about the false bottom from NorCal? If you've dealt with them, will they punch a few more holes for me or am I on my own for customizing further?
We've got one of their conicals (no kettles) at the LHBS store and I like the construction. Everything seems heavy duty and well made.
