<DIV>Recently I purchased a 150 gallon Pfaudler, open top, Steam Kettle. </DIV>
<DIV>It looks like my cast iron syrup kettle except it is stainless steel and is
jacketed.</DIV>
<DIV>I want to try and use a remote, propane heated, thermal fluid heater.
My plan is to</DIV>
<DIV>circulate the hot oil instead of circulating steam. All components
except a hot</DIV>
<DIV>oil circulating pump will be home made. Has anyone done anything like
this?</DIV>
<DIV>Any information about how to do this modification will be appreciated. The
kettle</DIV>
<DIV>will be used to make sorghum syrup using the batch
method.</DIV></DIV></DIV></BODY></HTML>
