So the turkey fryer setup at canadian tire finally went on sale: 30qt aluminum pot with burner for $50....not bad at all. The thing is, a 30qt pot seems to be the absolute minimum for 5 gallon batches doing full boils....
So to deal with the problem I was thinking about some sort of "boil-over shield" made of a material that can 1) withstand the temperature, 2) create a seal around the rim of the pot and 3) have the effect of giving the pot another 5" - 6" or so in height.
How does the idea sound? Throw out whatever crosses your mind and maybe we'll come up with a solution....
