I am thinking I might go the route of etching stainless with an acid/salt solution and electricity.... Will have to do a few tests but that pipe is hard.. I think it 316 ss... touch stuff.. can't even drill it.. Might do the quick solution for now and just make a ruler to zip tie in place... or some tape ..but I was thinking etched stainless look nice... was also thinking could etch the inside of the pot every gallon when doing mashes without the sight glass.. if its gets to be a problem. For the most part will be a boil kettle. Really want to get innis and gun clone going....

Badmotivator etched the inside of his boiler with electric etching. Did a fantastic job of it. Might want to pm him about it.

Re: Brew/boil kettle build from 15g keg.
I just happened to notice my name mentioned. The keg boiler and cabinet built story in my signature has some information about it, but I can add any information you might need. I'd be glad to help.yakattack wrote:Badmotivator etched the inside of his boiler with electric etching. Did a fantastic job of it. Might want to pm him about it.

For now going the lazy method.... and going to get other projects done.. like hydro to the basement. Picked up 50ft of 10-3 to run.. but need other items and not sure what breaker I need yet. The run will not be a full 50 ft but did not want to need a wire stretcher 
Might use the welder plug and only hookup 2 hots and ground. 30 amp 250v trist locks are over $50 each at the local hardware store OMG and I would need 3 or 4 so cheaper method I might go...B
