Wasn't sure whether to put this in BIAB or DIY...So I did this instructable for my 10gal SS Brew Tech kettle (links at the bottom). It went pretty smooth, except there's a problem... So I got a 22 1/2 in. Planter, and I used 6 cans of GreatStuff by Dow.
Everything seemed to cure fine (see pic, 24hrs. after adding foam), but when I went to cut out the handles and pull this baby out, the middle layer of foam hasn't cured yet and is still sticky. My guess is, due to the larger pot and deeper gap, the foam needs more time to set.
Anyone try this before? Any folks experienced with this type of foam?
