The boiler I have is pretty much a 30lt stock pot that has a fairly average (rubbish) "silicon" gasket that clips on the rim of the stock pot. When it's cold it seems like it seals fine but as things heat up it's not such a good seal (in fact when using a thumper the back pressure was enough to pop the seal and that wasn't fun).
Is there any suggestions on where to get a reasonable gasket to seal a 30cm pot, the only thing that comes up on the searches are pressure cooker seals and only 28cm diameter (and mostly Chinese/unknown origin). There are four clips on the pot that holds the lid on so I need something flexible enough and thik enough to adjust to the gap as it heats up. There's nowhere to apply a flour paste I an really looking for a gasket of some type. Any guidance would be appreciated.
Thanks
