New milk can boiler arrived today.....

Got to sort element out....think I'll stick with a 3kw...that way no problem with the leckey...

Nice. 3kw will get there. Might be more gentle which isn't a bad thing.

My immersion tank has a 3KW element and it is 200 odd litres

Perhaps think about a nice foamy jacket for it.

Absolutely agree. There is no need.

There is nothing like a bit of new stainless to lift the spirits

Must say even though I've acquired 2 kegs now I'm tempted. The cleaning through the removable lid particularly appeals

What's the crack with the element arrangements?

Hey Ice
That's a beautiful piece of kit that boiler. What's its quantity and if its not to cheeky what was the approx. cost of the beast. any offers really appreciated.

The lid is great Admiral, no problem at all getting your arm in to clean. Fitting the element will be simples....I bought the Guard kit....just use a 2" Triclamp.
Did you sort the SS scrubbers you were after??

The boiler is 50 liters RM...so now I'll do 2x25 wash's, bang them straight in.
I'm waiting on 2x23 liter lentil wash's at the moment, their a week old now just waiting for them to clear. I was going to do a double run with the T500 but I think I'll wait for the box of bits that I ordered yesterday from SDe and pop my cherry on the new kit.

The cost of the boiler and a couple of bits of kit came to just under 400 euros.

I bloody hope it fits I'm going to take just the fitting down to Screwfix this Sat and ask if I can try one of their elements in it...if alls ok I'll buy one.

Glad your ok on the scrubbers....yes I've just read it..didn't know you where on there...I've recognised a few names.

Posted: **Wed Feb 11, 2015 12:36 pm**

Ok let's us know how you get on

Posted: **Wed Feb 11, 2015 1:50 pm**

Got a problem...

the element boss is 1" BSP...phoned Screwfix they don't do any..been on line for a couple of hours, phoned 3 suppliers all to no avail. One place said they can build a custom one but it's the cost. >:(

It seems that you have to use a element for a stainless boiler, the ones at Screwfix states copper tanks only.

I've found this one Here
It's in Beijing but you are covered by Amazon...unless I can come up with one in the UK I'll have to give this one a punt...
