Hello everyone it's my first post on here. I have a question that I really hope I can get some help with. I have a mash that's about ready to run and I just found a crack on the bottom of my stainless steel boiler when i was cleaning it today. And it's leaking. Money is tight so I can't buy a new one. So is there any way for me to fix it besides for welding. Thank you for the help!!!

Unless this is a previous weld point that failed (unlikely based on position) it is probably stress from heating and cooling and/or weakening from corrosion. It is most likely not repairable. Can you upload a couple of photos?

nah don’t try to patch that especially on the bottom it’s gonna fail with heat and pressure best cheap move is proper weld fix anything like epoxy or sealant won’t hold and can be unsafe
