A few items I was going to use in a HERMS system, but never completed.

70L Stainless Pot (unused) with weldless bulkhead fitting and 1/2” ball valve - $195
- bought from Grain and Grape (sold here for $230 with no holes/tap) https://www.grainandgrape.com.au/products/category/FCFTULTE-stainless-steel-pots/7S/S 70 LITRE--stainless-steel-pot-70-litres
- received a few dents while being drilled by G&G - will not impact use.

56L Insulated Mash Tun with Ball Valve and 12” Dome False Bottom (unused) - $145
- sold by Keg King for ($199.95) http://kegking.com.au/56-litre-insu...el-ball-valve-and-stainless-false-bottom.html

Heat Exchange Urn (custom made) - $290
- made from a Breville 6L urn, with a “Double Helix” stainless steel tubing for extra flow
- includes 1/2 “ ball valves for wort in/out and drainage (quick disconnects on in/out)
- also fitted an additional 2400W element for quicker heating times
- cost over $450 in parts and fittings

Mag drive pump with stainless head - $90
- pump sold by Keg King for $79.95 http://kegking.com.au/mkii-magnetic-drive-pump-25w.html

With all the items above, you will almost have a complete HERMS setup

Beer Belly Falsie - $60

20L Urn - $30
- has a slightly leaky tap

10L Lennox urn (ALDI brand) with concealed element - $50

I might be interested in the HEX urn, what kind of ramp times does it get with say a 50L batch? Does it come with a PID + temp probe?

edit: just noticed it has an extra element fitted, suppose I'd need to find an extra powerpoint for this badboy...

Not sure what the numbers would be for a 50L batch - but I timed it to heat 7.5L from 15 to 70 degrees in 20 minutes (using a 12v small brown pump)

No PID or probe, but I can add a thermowell for temp probe

Also interested in eski if Rosey doesn't go through with it.... A pic or two would be great - as no pics are showing in original post.... [emoji106]

For those that cannot see pics - what are you viewing this thread on? Device/App or Computer/Browser ?
 
I've modified the way the photos are included - hopefully they show up for everyone.
 
Sorry Hatband, Esky has been sold, pending payment/pickup.
I'll keep you posted if it falls through.
 
Good duck I can't see pics of eski certainly keen on it
 
Gonna have to pass on the HEX urn I'm afraid. Looks great but I just don't have the finances right now.

Next up!
