Hi guys,
Thinking of upgrading my brew kettle from my trusty 40L Buffalo - it works fine, but takes FOREVER to get to the boil. Wanting to head to the great outdoors.
My usual brew length is 25L, but I have a big mash tun (60L) and it would be good to be able to do larger brews occasionally - I am thinking up to 50L ish, although most of my brews would still be 25L.
Are there any disadvantages to getting a 70L brew kettle (on a gas ring) to cover both bases? Is it too big for the small brews, and too small for the big ones? Am I better off saving up and getting a 50L and 100L kettle?
Thank you in advance! Hope you are all enjoying Summer - why has no one ever told me until now it is Saison season?
Simon
