How tall is the pot? I have the 15 gallon, but wondering if I can fit the 20 on my system for 10 gallon batches

It is 16" tall. It works great for me, I boil 14 to 15 gallons in it with no issues or boil-overs. My only small issue was the valve placement, it sits up off the bottom slightly more than I like, so I leave behind anywhere from 1 to 1.5 gallons after boil, so I had to adjust.

Too much? Lol this is perfect for a ten gallon. And you have a 55 which makes me think it's not enough. That's me responding at a 2. Don't make me turn it up to a ten. In all seriousness there is not anything you can do. However, I am still honestly surprised it's too much. May I ask how?

I was able to place my 20 gallon on the bottom of the stand but did not keep it there. The reason is because petco did not cover anything about using the bottom to hold a 20 gallon. This could cause one big issue for you as well the fish in both tanks. So my advice would be not to try it! You could always contact the company and ask them directly but more likely get told nearly what I covered. I hope that helps you out.

The bottom lip of the spouts are 15.5 inches as it stands up, you can stretch out the coils to make it taller or shorter, but I would not recommend this version for a keggle, You should pick up the Wort Chiller that has more coils, because you will be able to get more heat transfer of a 10 gallon batch (it will be much more efficient) Also, the keggle itself holds onto temperature, so you are going to want to either blast it will a hose while you are chilling the wort, submerge it, or otherwise figure out how to cool the outside; if you don't cool the outside of the keggle down at the same time, it is going to take a really long time to cool the wort.

Let me update my answer. The pot I purchased and reviewed is 10 quarts. It's great for making stock/broth, boiling ears of corn, boiling pasta, etc... It's a great size and I use it frequently. You can choose your size, however.

No, it will not fit in a 10" pot, but it will fit in a 16". Not sure of dia. but it is more that 10". Hope this helps.

I would order the 20 gallon one since your take is more bigger. But if you feel like you will be upgrading soon I would consider going for the 40 but def. 20 will work just fine. I honestly love my 10 gallon one on my 10 gallon tank.

Depending on how big your pots are. Can hold 13. 6" pots. 10 gallon pots if they are the tall slim ones. But if your growing plants that need lots of space or will end up needing transplanting into 12" and or 3 gallon pots at the end of growth then you can only. Fit 3 plants. Comfortably. So I would use this for veg only as u can put alot in there for that then move plants outside or bigger tent for flower.

I use 5 gallon jugs and that works fine....probably it would work for 10 too...

To brew 5 gallons of beer, you need at least 6.5 gallons of space (pre-boil volume). The more the better. I'd recommend a 32qt at a minimum to avoid boilovers. I brew 10 gallon batches in a 20 gallon pot and it's easy peasy. Much smaller and it was a hassle. So for 5 gallon batches, i'd recommend a 40 qt, 32qt at a minimum.

What are the dimensions as a 15 lb tank would fit but I am unsure about the 20 lb size.

One user reports "Very high quality build, I got it for home brewing and have done a full 5 gal boil with a 10 gallon pot. However, the boil is not vigorous".. That makes it 50 lbs + weight of pot. Reading his review I would think thats about your limit. Thats a lot for a counter top burner. I have done about 40lbs myself pot & contents. Take all that with a grain of salt of course :-) There are no specs available to state the design limits. I would suggest you contact Vollrath for that info.. They are really nice and very helpful.

Sorry, didn't need to measure in gallons or quarts so I don't know. I do like the quality of the pot however and would assume that it is indeed 60 quarts which is 15 gallons.

I measure it out with a pitcher first. If your making regular size batches of beer you only need to boil 2-3 gallons. So this was way to big I got the 8 gallo. Instead. Which is big enough to do a 10 gallon batch of beer. This pot is beautiful everything about it is perfect!

Hey Patrick, I have 2 of these tank 9 gallon setups. The height is about 15-1/2 - 16" There are little feet on the bottom so the tank won't ruin the counter top. The little lamps are awesome, but not really well made. I wish the lamps were sold separately so I found put one on my little run-of-the-mill 2 gallon backup tank. Also, the company stands behind their product if you have any difficulty. Cheers!

It fits perfectly into the upper ridge of my 10-gallon standard tank, and it definitely doesn't fit our 20 long. 20 long is a fairly standard size, though. I would filter for Marineland, and look for one specifically for a 20 long.
