Kettle supports

[jlmcgrath]

Hi all,
Looking at my brewstand with the kettles on it, they are only supported on each side by about 50mm of tubing. They are all 100L vessels. Does this look like enough support?

Cheers,

Jeff

It will 'do' so to speak but more support wouldn't hurt. You also run the risk of the whole pot falling through if it gets a solid knock from the side. If it were my system, I'd run 2 lengths perpendicular to those members to support the front and rear of the pot.

4 or 2 points of contact? If 2 as it appears in the photo wouldn't the pot be rocking a little?

Doesn't seem to rock, but it is only 2 points of contact. I need to have some other welding done, so I will just add this to the list.

Thanks guys
