What exactly are you trying to do Dempsey? Have you already got a pot that you want to use?

Found this pot on Amazon. 19L stock pot. Not bad. I'm considering it as a HLT/kettle for small batches in the winter. Reasonably priced too.

Would the aldi ones be strong enough to both boil and hold the weight of a 5g batch? I've a 36l brew kettle that a magnet sticks to. It's got a very wide base though.

Cool I'll keep an eye open for one so :)

The aldi hobs are 2kW so don't expect it to get you to boil temperature quickly. It's sufficient to maintain a rolling boil though.
I have a 3kW hob and it's the mutts. I'd recommend shelling out extra for the more powerful hob if it's going to be your main brew kit.

Cool, where did you get yours?

imark

I got mine from nisbets


imark

Yes. Cost me roughly half that at the time. Worth watching out for a sale if you're in no rush.

Cool will keep an eye out for them
