Surprise surprise another which kettle to buy post. I have been doing a lot of research in the past month or so on home brewing. I am a complete newb when it comes to this but i am a veteran beer drinker. So far i have done one batch. It was an extract kit that is currently in bottles and has only been in there one week. I do not have a kettle, i used a buddies for the kit. I would like to purchase my own but am stuck on the size and make. I have gone from 8g-20g and el cheapo to spike, megapot, stout and blichmann g2. I have 58 hours of overtime coming on a check but would like to keep the price under $500. I just cant make my mind up. While i plan on starting with 5g extract batches, i can see myself moving quickly to BIAB in 10 gallon batches. This makes me think i would be better off buying a 20g. Eventually i may move to a 3 vessel setup but may stick with BIAB. Lately i have been leaning towards the megapot for the 1.2 ratio and the tri ply bottom, which i assume is important for BIAB. Can anyone help point me in the right direction for size and manufacturer? Thanks.
