I'm looking at buying the above 15L urn just wondered if anyone else has bought one and what they thought of it.

Any particular reason you are looking at that urn? What is the purpose?

I need something in my shed to heat up sparge water of approximately 12L.

Yeah fair enough,

I was gonna suggest getting a larger unit.

Any particular reason you heat your sparge water separate? Not telling you what to do, and I am by no means an expert but I bring the full volume to strike temp, then drain off my sparge volume.

I then let the sparge water sit while I mash, and just use as is. There have been studies done on cold water sparging etc, there is no need to have particularly warm sparge water but I have found I heat to about 70 and it's about 65 by the time I sparge.

Just a thought to save you $$$. you can but a 19L pot from Big W for like $20 if you don't have a pot. Otherwise, a 19L pot and one of those $10 camping stoves but that's just my opinon!

Regards
