That looks like the old version of the Peco boiler/mash bin, etc.

I had one for years and it was a pile of shite. Biggest problem was that it couldn't reach or maintain a rolling boil. Kept cutting out. I complained to the supplier who sent me a replacement element. Same issue. Supplier soon updated their website to say it should be used as a hlt only and not for boiling wort.

I only got mine to work by replacing the element with one ripped out of a cheap Tesco kettle.

The temp control unit was flaky too. In fact, mine packed in.

Hope this helps,
