Large Stock Pot - 30L

I almost never secondary any more. It's pretty pointless short of dry hopping and I can do that in the keg.

Also, a fully airtight lid might be desirable by homebrewers but it's not necessary. Not in the least. In fact many UK breweries don't even cover their fermenters and leave them open. The yeast is all the protection they need. As long as the lid keeps dust particles, cat hair and insects out, it's doing the job.

A stock pot is not ideal, but I don't trust plastic, even if it is somewhat irrational. I just don't want to deal with the one time an infection hides in a scratch and ruins my beer.  I also don't want another glass carboy. Besides, it can always be converted to a boiler or HLT at a later stage.

Ok, fair enough

Have you checked these out:

I know it looks like an auction but just e-mail them and they will quote you a price and delivery to Ireland.

I bought 4 pots from them for a very good price.

I ordered a few ( :) ) last year:
This was their quote:

10221 - 47,90 EUR  100L
10224 - 40,50 EUR   70L
10220 - 2 x 36,90 EUR 50L
10223 - 28,90 EUR 33L
+
39,90 EUR shipping

I've yet to drill a hole in any but the SS is about 1mm thick.

I believe "Christhehoppimp" from Bray has drilled them and they are a good quality thickness of SS for the price.

Was a hell of a day eh!!

Hi Will,

Could you tell me what is the diameter of the 33 and 50 litre pots?

Will_D

Ye could always follow the link!!

It may be in German but its pretty easy!

Any way:

All their pots are "square" so:

50L 400 x 400 mm
33L 350 x 350 mm

Damn, had been looking at other ebay sellers that didn't list the diameters and got a bit mixed up.

My bad.

Cheers.
