Howdy CC,
i use something very similar to that and for my brewing it works great.
The one i have is from the big green shed, and it has a wire rack shelf underneath instead of two solid shelves.
*I AM NOT AN ELECTRICIAN. THIS MAY OR MAY NOT BE CONSIDERED "SAFE" BUT IT'S WORKING FINE FOR ME, blah blah blah...
My HLT is electric (30lt aluminium pot with a kettle element installed) and i also have a kambrook single hotplate that it sits on. This gives me roughly 4000kw of heating. Have had a look at the circuit board for the shed, and it looks like i'm running 16A fuses, and heavy duty extension cords. Haven't had anything trip it so far, and i have two fridges, TV and DVD, ipod dock and the usual lighting all on whilst i brew...
I have mounted small water recirculation pump on the stand to transfer from HLT to mash tun (esky) and from there, i gravity feed my kettle which is sitting on a fabricated stand on the ground. Works great.
Oh, i also have a water filter attached to the stand. On brewday, i hook up the garden hose, fill HLT from the filter, power on, pump the hot water to the mash tun and the rest is as we know it....
Mines on wheels too, which makes it easy to wheel out under the patio if it's a nice day. Nothing like brewing outside in fine weather, the smell of grains and hops wafting over the backyard.. :icon_drool2:
It also came with adjustable feet to help level it, but i prefer the castor wheels.
Before i installed the element into my HLT, i used to use the same burner for my kettle (3 ring burner) for my HLT and that used to sit on top of the stainless trolley.
I was initially worried about the strength of it, but it did a good job for me.
Feel much safer though now that i'm not using crazy amounts of heat close to the stand anymore.
Reckon it cost me about $130 on special if i remember rightly.....
