The system you buy when all-in-one stops making sense.
The K80 Boil Kettle with Malt Pipe is a modular stainless boil kettle that runs a full-capacity mash — without locking you into proprietary all-in-one hardware. Built from 304 stainless, designed around tri-clamp architecture, with a full-size malt pipe from day one. Start with one vessel and grow to a two- or three-vessel brewhouse.
Made to order (pre-order). We build in monthly production batches — contact us for the current lead time before ordering.
Malt pipe workflow
With the malt pipe installed, the K80 becomes a full-capacity mash vessel: load grain, recirculate, lift, drain and sparge — clean, stable and repeatable.
- Grain capacity: ~22–30 kg (depending on malt and crush)
- Malt pipe (grain basket) volume: 62.6 L
- Volume below the malt pipe: 17.7 L
Port architecture
- Bottom drain: 1.5" TC, centred for complete drainage (dish bottom)
- Heating ports: 2× 2" TC (electric heating-element ready)
- Process ports: 2× 1.5" TC (return / whirlpool / transfer)
- Thermowell port: 1× 1.5" TC
