55 gallon stainless steel barrel as boiler?
Anyone ever done this or seen one? Seems like a relatively inexpensive way to have a large boiler. If anyone has seen or done this, what did you do for a pot still head? Just make a normal one but use 6" pipe instead of 3"?

I'm building a 3" pot still right now to go on a 15.5 gallon sanke keg. That said I have alot of friends that I'd like to share with, so cooking that much would be fun. Also I'd rather make alot once than many times over. Just a fun thought to entertain while I try learn on my 3" pot still.
