I'm referring to this one: https://www.homebrewing.org/10-Gallon-2-Weld-Volume-Marked-Brew-Pot_p_6827.html
I'm in the market for a new brew kettle; my Bayou Classic has rust on the inside from where I did the DIY volume etching trick w/ a battery - disappointing! I saw that AIH is having a sale where you can earn bonus points, I already have a bunch of points so I figured it would be cool to get more while I'm at it. But I wonder about the quality of these "no-name" kettles. One review says it rusted around the welds. That would be a deal breaker for me as that's the reason I'm buying a new pot in the first place!

- At least 10 gal capacity
- Volume markings stamped/etched
- Port for ball valve (bonus is ball valve included!) - port for thermometer is not as important to me
- Affordable (anywhere in the $100-$150 range give or take)
