This is my brew pot. There are many like it, but this one is mine. My brew pot is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life. My brew pot, without me, is useless. Without my brew pot, I am useless. I must fire up my brew pot true. I must brew better than my enemy who is trying to out brew me. I must out brew him before he out brews me. I will...My brew pot and I know that what counts in competition is not the styles we enter, the noise of our burner, nor the smoke we make. We know that it is the balance that counts. We will nail it...My brew pot is human, even as I, because it is my life.

Thus, I will learn it as a brother. I will learn its weaknesses, its strength, its parts, its accessories, its sights and its gauges. I will keep my brew pot clean and ready, even as I am clean and ready. We will become part of each other. We will...Before God, I swear this creed. My brew pot and I are the defenders of the Brewnoser community. We are the masters of our enemy. We are the saviors of my life. So be it, until victory is the Brewnosers and there is no enemy, but peace!

Keith I hacked up the rifleman's creed above hoping it would inspire you to name the beast. lol It's big and beautiful. I've read the KAB6 can handle up to 150 L pot so you will be using it to it's potential.
