Beer Brewing Vessel
Probably you will want to make your beer in 18l lots; that is two
dozen bottles. The vessel to be used for boiling the ingredients should
hold about 4.5l. Preferably, it should have a capacity of 14 or 18l, so
that 9l could be boiled in it with no risk of boiling over. Most
kitchens would have a suitable aluminium boiler, but they are not
expensive and almost certainly would have other uses. The boiler from a
home bottling and preserving outfit would be very suitable. Failing
these, a galvanised or tinned 18l can, well cleaned out, would prove
quite suitable. Perhaps you may have an electric urn or boiler. Avoid
bare copper or lead containers and do not put acid into galvanised or
tinned vessels.
