Looks identical to the ace mash tuns that you can get on ebay for 120 euro. Brewdorg on the forums here got one last week..looks goog quality

I know there are similar about, just bringing it to the attention of the masses.
Have you a link to the alternative so would-be owners can compare?
Copy my link above to the other thread, post here and I will remove this thread.


Leann ull

Not double lined that one though :(
Bergland pot or picnic cooler has best insulation properties but of course with the ones posted there you could just remove a basket or bag of grains and boil in that pot even if 30l max capacity is a bit on the low side

I got one of those, great quality, no complaints at all. Boils 30 litres in about 20 mins

Leann ull

bet you could convert that into a mini grainfather as well ;)

Wow check the price on those now

armedcor

I sincerely hope they made a mistake with that listing haha!

Hell of a deal if it were in yen  ;)

I would say they are out of stock so they bumped up the price so no one would order...either that or there is something special about that one😉

rukkus

Maybe people are actually paying that for them

Bought one of these a while back and have done one BIAB brew in it. I had an issue with thermostat not allowing the temperature to go high enough for a rolling boil. I emailed ACE and they overnighted a replacement thermostat to me which was brilliant.

I actually sorted the issue myself though without replacing the thermostat. I popped off the bottom and moved the probe further away from the base and it works perfectly now.

It was absolutely perfect for my mash and held my temperature for the full hour with no issue. The double lining is the business. After just one brew, I'm absolutely delighted with it and would recommend it for BIAB.
