Check out http://www.brewhemoth.com for kettles.
First word of advice, buy the best you can so you only buy once. You can do a 5 gal batch in a larger pot that will give you the capability to a 10 gal batch. I’m surprised that no one mentioned a keggle. Max is 13.5 gal preboil for a 10 gal. The Penrose looks good. Morebeer is running deals of the day (I have no financial interest) tomorrow the whole day. There may be some pots on there.
Do you guys use your 10 gallon Kettles on the stove? Or on a burner outside? I am also debating on equipment to purchase…
I plan on using the 10 gallon on the Kitchen stove, for a few batches anyway. I’ve never had a problem getting 4 gallons to a rolloing boil. I assume 6 or 7 will be much more difficult, but there’s only so much equipment I can buy at a time. I decided to start with purchasing a heavy duty 10 gallon kettle, and a 50’ immersion wort chiller. Wife was giving me hell for scratching up the kitchen sink doing ice baths, so I thought the chiller would be the best next step.
After that, I plan on going for the outside burner. Then I’ll start accumulating some all-grain equipment. After that will be kegging stuff. One step at a time. 8)
I use 10 gal Megapots on my stove.
But I have a larger burners and 3 burners going.
I have the 20 gallon kettle from homebrewstuff, a 15 gallon kettle from morebeer, and used to have the 10 gallon megapot from NB. They are the same quality/build of kettle with different names. The B3 kettle does have the welds, but weldless works just as well in my experience.
