I use a wax melter to bottle my syrup with, not a heat rite brand. Mine is made out of 304 stainless, which these are as well. The double boilers are ment to handle both honey and wax. I really like mine
This one looks similar to the honey tank I use from Kelley Bee. http://www.ritehete.com/uploads/2016%20WJ40%20SPECS.pdf

It appears they offer different models. Check with them, but I think the water jacket models should be fine, they use it to heat honey.
Dave Klish, I recently ordered a 2x6 wood fired evaporator from A&A Sheet Metal which I will be converting to oil fired
Now have solar, 2x6 finish pan, 5 bank 7x7 filter press, large water jacketed bottler, and tankless water heater.
Recently bought another Gingerich RO, this one was a 125, but a second membrane was added thus is a 250, like I had.
After running a 2x3, a 2x6, 3x8 tapping from 79 taps up to 1320 all woodfired, now I'm going to a 2x6 oil fired and a 200-425 taps.
We called Rite-Hete this week and spoke with someone named Patrick. He indicated they do not make food grade units.
