Hi,

I have a spare white fermenting bucket... (pure white type)

https://www.brewuk.co.uk/60-litre-fermentation-vessel-plain.html

Similar to the one in the link, but only 30l

Anyway... can I add boiler elements to it and create a HLT and the plastic be ok?

I already have a white bucket boiler from THC which I do BIAB, but after I recently purchased an igloo cooler to convert to a mash tun, I would like a HLT.

Cheers guys.

Check then plastic code it has on it, if it's isn't the right type it will release very harmful chemicals/compounds into your brew!

You can check the code online
 
Just looked at the bottom of the ont I want to convert and my peco boiler and I can't see a code except the recycle code... or is that it?

Cheers guys
