I have 3 kegs in the process of being converted (for a 3-tier system)... Once they're setup, I think it's all I will use!

A good friend of mine usually brings his stuff to my house and brews with me. He uses a keggle and the boil always looks absolutely even and well maintained. Not much adjustment happening with the flame during the boil.

I haven't used mine yet because I've been to cheap to build a new chiller.

Matty, are you moving up to 10 gallon batches with your new 3 tier?

hey matty,

where did you pick up your kegs? i've had my eyes on a few listed on ebay but would like to find another source.

what are you using to build your stand? I am probably going to use strut.

I may do a new series soon. I've changed several steps on my process but this still works well.
