Cheap urn for HLT

[damoninja]

Hi guys

Looking at these to use as an HLT but can't tell brand or anything to get reviews etc. Typically believe you get what you pay for but never know maybe this is a winner.

Anyone bought / heard of them?

Bigger, you'll need/want bigger

Maybe?

I'm doing just fine using the my kettle to heat my strike water and pre-heat my sparge water.

The largest volume of water I've needed in a single hit is 23 litres. Certainly never exceeded 30 litres in a single dose.

Future proof... You can always put less in a bigger vessel, can't work the other way

Well the next decent jump in size up takes me to 40L and I can't really go higher on account of not having any 16 amp outlets I can utilise.
$275 crown from beerbelly, few places online where they're a few bucks cheaper but for the sake of pennies I'll buy local.
If it's a significant price difference however well sure I'll order online.

Either way - surely people actually use these 30L ones so I'm still keen to know.
