Better than the ~4.5L in my current 82L pot. I didn't check the volume markings, but the deadspace on a (probably not level) surface seemed to be around 2.5L which is pretty much what I want. I might rig something up out of a $2 mat from ebay. I would prefer if they were ringed by silicon to avoid scratching the lovely stainless but for the price I can't complain. The filter screens are very tight fits. This is the same as my cheapo 30L urn and probably not a surprise but worth noting that if liquid were to collect here and not be properly drained/aired it would probably rust (as with storing pots with rolled lips inverted with water pooled).

There is a lip at the base of the unit that collects liquid if anything drips over the side of the urn. I might try and add a small V-shaped bead of silicon to address this. It's nothing major but I'd probably prefer if there was a shroud to divert liquid over the side of the element from touching these. The rubber on the 500W element switch isn't finished quite so well but it still appears to seal against the urn. The switches for pumps and elements attempt to be water-sealed. Concealed elements beat cleaning sticks any day. Everything comes apart and if I wanted to I could probably remove the top rack of my dishwasher and give everything (malt pipe, 3x screens, lid etc) except the urn itself a run with hot PBW. The deconstruction for cleaning is excellent. The return pipe seems to be fixed to the urn well. Malt pipe is many times more rigid than my current 56L slotted pot. I haven't used a robobrew before so will spend some time working out the timers/steps to see how they work with my brew day. I tried all of the elements, pump and controller and things worked as expected, the ramp time to 80degC with 3500W seemed comparable to my old setup using 2x2200W elements (in a thinner, wider pot). I have received my Robobrew 65L and have a few initial observations having assembled it and done a cleaning run this evening.
