Look on Gumtree - and search for "Burco" there are two at £25 fixed price, no auction. Search on "Tea Urns" and there a couple more at £40

If you want to use a stock pot there are lots of options for elements. Try searching on "Burco Elements" or you could have a look on You-Tube at lots of "How To" videos that may help. Have a look at this one that shows you how to reclaim an element from an £8 electric kettle.

Are you looking at Stainless or Aluminium stock pots? Make sure they are stong enough to support a column, some of the low cost stainless ones are very thin indeed.

hi thanks for that info on the elements

i see the too three on gum tree but the to at 25 or 10ltr
and the £50 one is 20lt

witch iv all ready been down are to small
and too far away for me .


the stock pot iv seen is a better quality than the ones iv got and if the !! lt pot iv got can hols the big column iv made this one will hold
it .


the only reason i picked the element i did was it was just simply cut a hole push it through and conect it up and the price was only £15 .

iv looked at heating elements for ther burco but i hate electrics and dont trust myself to wire one up plus i wouldnt know ware to start

or whaty about this
