61 something plus 7.95 shipping so yes. And 10 litre capacity is most likely the total volume not the boil size. At least aldi clearly quotes boil size which is 2-3 inches from top

Yeah 70 doesn't sound so good. I know someone with a 30 litre buffalo and that's to the brim. Probably same here. I have a 10lt burco and it has head spac to accommodate a ten litre boil..

You can't boil wort in these though can you? Do they not have elements that would get coated?

Think aldi and lidl are pretty good at swapping when in warranty. You wouldn't want to have modified it or admit to boiling anything other than water though I reckon.

Need to bypass the simmer switch. Been doin decoction for over a year. No probs good element 900watts does not burn unless the mash is too dry. Caramelises de wort very well

@mark simmer switch is straight foward wire switch. Get electrician if not competant. If ever breaks just reconect. Dont bypass the overheat switch!!!
Great little accessory boiler especially for pilot batches (1gall) and decoctioning
