yep. i've got one of those as well as a tea urn type boiler. the burco type. there much better, but you still can't get a good rolling boil. just on and off with the thermostat.

I found this on the Walmart website. You can buy as many as you need and configure them however you want.

Hey you guys with kegs for MLT's and HLT's for that matter. What are you using for insulation is that just regular old hot water heater insulation. How well does it work? I built my system with 3 kegs but I am now using a picnic cooler. I was losing like 6-8 degreees during my mash.

I built my system with 3 kegs but I am now using a picnic cooler. I was losing like 6-8 degreees during my mash. I just did my first cold weather brew last sunday and saw how much my MLT suffered. I got big burners so it isn't that big of a deal its just gas added to the brew day cost.

I built my system to do 10 gallon batches, but I am only doing 5 right now until I get the hang of the all grain thing. I really want to use the keg with out having to add direct heat to it. Can you guys hold a good temp with out adding heat or hot water?

I don't insulate... I'm more of a "close enough" style brewer.

I can't afford to be much more than a close enough brewer. I do wrap my MT with a real thick type moving blanket. I duct tape it to the side, and try not to mske it so tight. My mash may drop by 1 or 2 degrees in one hour...and that's close enough for me.
