Megapot 1.2 - 30 Gallon Kettle Question

[NFryan]

Just wondering if this will be suitable for my 1- 5500w element.

The largest batches I would brew would be around 20 gallons. I have already got about 15 gallons up to boil with no problem with 1 element. I figured 22 ish shouldn't be that much of an unrealistic stretch.

Just looking for some input or to hear from others that may have the same 30 gallon kettle. Also how does this kettle fare doing 10 - 15 gallon batches.

Thanks

I don't have this kettle but it looks plenty wide enough for a 5500 camco ripple. Just remember that features like a tri-ply bottom will be completely useless to you from a e-brewing standpoint.

I have been regularly making 20 gallon batches with a 4500 watt element

Cheers.
