[Syrupmakers] 60 Gallon Kettle For Sale

[Tracy Baudoin (tbaudoin)]

That sounds about right....I got my 11ga. SS for about $225 (at cost)
about 5 years ago.  Since then, all metal prices have begun to
sky-rocket.

Monty,

   I priced a sheet of SS today and might have passed out if I had taken
it seriously ! A 4' x 10' sheet of 12 gauge was $345, I think. Keeps
going up...... I MAY keep the vat for juice storage !

	Thanks for the info Richard. It's not exactly the dimensions I
was looking for, but I'm sure it would work if someone wanted to try it.

		Monty,

		   I called it a "vat" because I really don't know what
to call it. It probably holds about 100 gallons or so and is 33 L x 24 W
x 28 D. It was probably used for collecting the silverware and dishes on
a Navy ship for dishwashing. I have often thought of using it for a
juice vat. It would need the drain valve removed from the bottom and
weld a small piece of SS to cover the hole and put a valve on the side
up about an inch from the bottom for settling the juice. I have 2
pictures of it , too--if you're interested.

				Stacey,

				    It might be. I have been told that
salt kettles have even steeper sides... I don't know for sure. The sides
are slightly sloped. I have 2 pictures of it now if you'd like me to
e-mail them to you. Also a SS "vat" about 100 gallons.  The kettle
measures 39 inches across and about 14-15 inches deep.

				Thanks for the report !

				That sounds like a salt kettle to me.  I
may be wrong, but most salt kettles are about the same size , but the
sides are straighter and have a narrow lip.

				   I have a Schofield 60 gallon
cast-iron kettle for sale. It is made in Georgia. It has a part of the
lip removed , intentionally I was told, for the smokestack to go. It is
a little more straight-sided than "regular" syrup kettles and has a
narrower lip. I have never used it and it would need cleaning up a good
bit. It is for sale--make offer.
