As a hlt would be pretty sweet probably but as a boil pot, would 2kw be enough for 48L?

I got free dents with mine. Pretty thin material. On a positive it seems to heat pretty quick.... no concealed element but cool for a HLT and the tap/hole fits 1/2 threaded pipe perfectly for ball valve upgrade

Hmmmm I was thinking as a boil pot. Anyone had any success in that regard?

+1 for the HLT.

QldKev's done a good write up here: http://qldkev.net/burners.php

You might get away with it... but you might find it struggles with a "full" size single batch (23-25L).

Disclaimer: I'm yet to even use my elec elements. Comments above are based on research for my kit, mostly by reading the interwebs - which according to up to 1 or more reviews contains "qaulty informations".

I BIAB at the moment but if I can pick one up cheap I think it would be good to have it they are decent quality..

Looks kind of like mine, but the wall may be a bit thinner due to the hexagonal shape, and it's more blinged up with the temp probe and timer. Should work pretty well if you can get it at a good price.

Yeah that was my thinking, seeing as my local wants about $300 for similar but round/slightly better quality additionals I think I could live with it if its a bargain.. not keen to spend $300 on a mashtun right now
 
Not sure if this is the right thread, but there are decommissioned (I'm told) beer kegs at the Sandgate 2nd Hand shop for $60 apiece.

Edit: 50L Coopers kegs.
