15 gallons yes their are multiple fittings and no bung hole. I think it’s supposed to be a mash tun as it comes with a false bottom and says for brewing beer or wine bLooks like a mini fermenter or maybe mash tun. I'd expect there to be a spigot or some such for the fitting(s) on the bottom. Did it come with that stuff? Not sure why the sight glass on the side if it's a fermenter--you'd be able to see how much is in there through the translucent side.
How big is it? 6 or 7 gallons? Also, is there a bung hole on top for an airlock?
EDIT: Looks like one of these: https://minibrew.com/collections/on-sale/products/sale-model-15-gallon-mash-lauter-tun
Looks like it's either a mash tun or a hot liquor tank.
Thanks!I have one of those, as well as a HLT, that I bought back in 2001. I originally used it as part of a 3 tier gravity set up and it worked just fine.
A job change left them collecting dust for a lot of years but last year when I retired and decided to get back into brewing I dragged them out of storage and with a few modifications made them part of a 3v herms system. They aren't all shiny stainless bling but I think they will serve their purpose just fine. I haven't had a chance to use them yet in their current state as I just finished putting a control panel together and I'm waiting on some electrical work but I'm sure they will be OK. And I figure it's a bonus that I didn't have to stretch my budget to buy two new kettles.
