55 Gallon Manway BoilerMaker™ G2

Elevate your large-scale all-grain brewing with the 55 Gallon Manway BoilerMaker™ G2, designed specifically as a high-performance mash tun for 32-gallon (1-barrel) batches. Engineered by Blichmann Engineering™, this premium kettle combines world-class craftsmanship with innovative features tailored for serious brewers. The standout feature of this model is the integrated manway, allowing for quick and easy grain removal, making cleanup a breeze after mashing. Constructed from heavy-gauge 304 stainless steel, the 55 Gallon Manway BoilerMaker™ G2 is imported and assembled in the USA to Blichmann’s exacting standards, ensuring durability and performance that lasts generations. The kettle features a sleek brushed exterior and silky-smooth interior for easy cleaning, along with a 1.2 height-to-diameter ratio—pioneered by Blichmann—for optimal mash efficiency and consistent results. The stepped bottom design supports the optional Button Louver™ false bottom, virtually eliminating sidewall shunting for superior wort filtration. This base kettle comes equipped with cool-touch, high-impact glass-filled nylon handles for safe and comfortable handling, and a heavy-duty borosilicate glass sight glass with a stainless steel guard, engraved with gallon and liter graduations for precise volume monitoring. The sight glass also doubles as a mash manometer, warning of potential stuck mashes. Unlike other BoilerMaker™ models, this kettle is not pre-punched for a valve or BrewMometer™, giving you the flexibility to customize your setup. Add an optional patent-pending linear flow valve for precise flow control during lautering and sparging, or include a BrewMometer™ for accurate temperature readings with Blichmann’s patented brewing dial face. Enhance your mash tun with optional accessories like the patented Button Louver™ false bottom for high-efficiency mashing or the AutoSparge™ for automated sparge water control. Whether you’re brewing high-gravity beers or scaling up your production, the 55 Gallon Manway BoilerMaker™ G2 delivers unmatched versatility and quality, backed by a lifetime limited warranty. Build your dream brewing system with a kettle that defines brewing excellence.
