Question:
Currently have a 50l pan that I use to do mi BIAB on. Now looking at going 3 vessel route. I'm thinking another 50l pan with electric to use as HLT. Should I then also get a 50l thermopot. Or would a 38l one do the job. I'm sure it would but if I were to utilise the kettle I have and do a 40l brew would that size thermopot be sufficient to do its magic with the required grain?

IMO ...keep the 50ltr as hlt..get a 70 ltr as kettle.....and as big a thermopot/mashtun as u can get......kinda future proofs set up and gives u options...

I am at present married and would quite like to remain that way. Haha

 

[Bunglebrewsbeer]

But would a 38l thermopot be big enough for a 50l kettle?

 

[Niman]

i have a 45ltr tun and a 70 liter kettle and for a standard beer thats grand...

HELL yes..

 

[Bunglebrewsbeer]

I've no idea. So thought I'd ask before I jumped in and purchased. No pint having a to small pot for the size of kettle.

 

[Bunglebrewsbeer]

Expect lots more questions once I've bought it all. Haha.
