I got the 32 quart stock pot (8 gallons) and it is truely a commercial grade item. I don’t know what gauge metal it is, but it’s definitely the heaviest pot I’ve ever encountered. The lid is solid and fits nice and flat. There is 6 point welding on the two handles. It has an encapsulated sandwich bottom consisting of 5mm thick aluminum core for even heat distribution. Another way of putting this is the aluminum is encased in two sheets of stainless steel. Good for us who don’t want aluminum in our food or beer. I am so glad I held off purchasing other pots I encountered. This is a major thumbs up product!
I can finally make Barefoot Contessa’s chicken stock. This pot is sturdy, simple and reasonably priced considering the price ranges for a 20 quartstock pot. And, my daughter already bumpted it to the floor and it didn’t suffer any dents. It’s perfect!!
If you’re thinking about stepping up to all-grain brewing or doing 10 gallon batches, this is the pot for you. Very heavy duty. One thing to keep in mind is that this pot might be a bit wider than you’re used to, so you may find that your immersion wort chiller doesn’t submerge as far in a typical 5 gallon batch as you’re used to. This might reduce some of your cooling efficiency, but it only took me about 5 more minutes to get down to my pitching temp.
i bought this some time ago and finally got around to brewing a double batch of bear. this is a great pot. the heavy bottom keeps stuff from burning when the propane is cranked up. it’s solid and durable. a great deal. i can easily brew a 10 gallon batch without worry of overflow.

This is no cheap, tinny pot. It’s sturdy and will last forever. Great for cooking stock!
