I use the 10 gallon pot for home brewing and it's worked so well for performing full boils on 5 gallon batches. I use this on a propane stove and it fits perfectly, although, if you're making bigger batches and doing full boils, this may not be big enough.I boil down 6.5-7 gallons for a 5 gallon batch, and boil overs are still a very real possibility if you don't watch the hot break before boiling and immediately after hop additions, but it's easy to clean.Don't let anyone tell you that aluminum is not good or safe for home brewing. It is perfectly fine! It's just recommended that you boil water in the pot before brewing so you can build up the oxide layer and don't scrub hard when cleaning, as it can remove that protective layer. I've not had any batches ruined by metallic off flavors and scrub and spray this thing down after each use.It conducts heat very well so it boils and cools quickly. I don't have a measurement, but the thickness of the pot was surprising for the price. It's very sturdy and won't wobble or flex on you.The only downsides are the handles, which are riveted and will become very hot after a short duration of the flame coming on. Be careful when trying to move this after the the burner has been ignited! Also, the lid is sold separately, and I highly recommend getting it if you're brewing outside.All in all a fantastic value for the budget conscious home brewer!

This is for LARGE BATCH ITEMS. I purchased as a spaghetti dinner pot ( I paid under $25.00)It's great for Holidays, BBQs, and many are using it as a HOME Brew POT. Or a monster size OF CHILLI. It's not pretty, and will discolor, unless you clean after every use with bar keepers friend, which I STRONGLY suggest. It's not pretty, but it's highly functional. I guess like a not- so- hot wife or husband ( hahaha, my sexist joke).But overall, at this price point, a home chef, will be pleased, and satisfied with the performance. I don't think it's heavy enough for a FULLY commercial kitchen.It is heavy and works well on a gas burner indoors.If you need a troth of sauce, or wanna really par-boil your ribs, this is perfect ( recipe at the end).take 8-10 pounds of PORK RIBS, score with a knife the underside5 granny smith applies sliced2 whole lemons cut in eighths2 limes cut in eighths3 cups of apple cider1 cup of orange juice1/2 cup of Corn Oil1/4 cup each of the following:vinegar ( white)saltpepperdark brown sugarNOW ADD SPICES:Tablespoon of the followingtyme,Allspice,lemon zest, cayenne peppercombine and then add 10 cups of waterLet the ribs SIMMER IN THE MIXTURE FOR 75 MINUTES, on Medium Heat Then let stand in Mixture for 2 HOURS.Then place on greased grill, outside for 15 minutes each side,cover in your favorite BBQ sauce, or Serve sauce on the side.this are ribs, I have won money for, and people pay me to make every year.ENJOY!

I use this pot for brewing and it works great!Pros:Thick wallsConducts heat wellEasy to drill into for fittingsLightCheapAmazon packs it to be able to survive a nuclear blastCons:The bottom on mine was slightly bowed inward so it would not make proper contact with my glass top stove.No lidTips:As many here have said fill it with a few gallons more than your typical pre boil wort volume and boil for a while to generate an oxide layer. It will be a fairly dark brown layer.For those of you struggling to get a good boil with your setups (especially those in small apartments) I drilled a 1500W camco element into the side of it!

Used primarily for my batches of Pasta Sauce. The thick aluminum works perfect for each batch. My last pot lasted for 15 years until the acid from the tomato products started pitting the interior!

I ordered the 40 quart version. The price was right compared to my local restaurant supply store and arrived in perfect shape. The pot is thick walled, handles look to be solid, and the pot built up a nice oxide layer after an initial test boil. So far, it has worked for home brewing, making scrapple, and brining turkeys. It also makes a good food grade bucket while doing butcher work.Let the buyer be warned, any pot over 12 quarts is going to be the largest item in the average home kitchen and the 20-40 quart models are comically large. The 40 quart will boil a full 9-10 gallons of water on a generic oven stove-top, if given a tight fitting lid and a few hours time. It will also take up two burners, over half the top surface, and be hazardous to move while hot. The pot does its job well, just know what you are getting into. I ordered the 40 because I wanted to never need a larger pot again.As for a lid, ordered one of these: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003HEUYFW/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00

its heavy duty, thick walled and exactly as described. for the price you cant beat this stock pot. i am using it as a vacuum pressure chamber for degassing of resins and such, far from soups and stocks lol, but the thick gauge wall is perfect for that. cant ask for more for the price, thanks.edit: i measured the thickness with a caliper and it was 3.8mm at the rim and slightly thinner below. still thick gauge but not the indicated 4-4.75mm in the specifications.

I was worried about the quality of the pot as there is an aluminum pot on the market the is just very thin aluminum and is very easy too burn a hole in. This pot that I purchased is excellent.
