"Watson, we may as well take the 4:32 Arrow from Donabate back to the City Centre.

From my observations it is clear that this case has gone cold as there are no LEADS to be found whatsoever in John's office"

[GrahamR]

right my two kettles will cost me €15, the fermenter will be roughly 13. The ball valve will be €6. Coupled with the lead I will be looking at roughly 40 notes. For that money am I better with the stock pot option would ye think or is the boiler still the best option

Picked up my kettles today in argos, 15 for the pair. Is there any reason uou can't use a fermenter with a dtandard tap

[Metattron]

Ask yourself, would you want a bucket full of sugary water with a plastic tap, possibly at crotch level,  boiling in front of you?  There you go.  It may be safe, but I wouldn't. 

[GrahamR]

Thought thst may have been the reason alright

[GrahamR]

If the wort is chilled before it passes through the tap surely its all the same, what are the taps on the ready made boilers that the hbc sell

[Ciderhead]

You need a metal tap
