What's everyone brewing?

[LiverDance]

I got that burner from a small shop here in SJ, I believe the brand is called Marlin, it is made in Quebec. It works pretty well, on medium flame it got almost 9 gallons of water to a boil in 30-40 minutes. My only problem with it is that the burner is pretty low, wonder if I can raise it up a bit so it works a bit faster.

the low burner was one of my two issues, definitely a lot of the heat gets wasted. my other problem was difficult to adjust air inlet, it is adjusted by a screw.

I raised mine up and it works way better! I just un hooked it from the current setup and placed it on bricks about 2" from the bottom of the pot.

Very good, will do that before I brew next time, lot of heat wasted for sure.

yes, thanks for the tip... I was wondering what other people do to get the wort out of their kettles and into the fermenter from those low burners?

I'm using a pump so the height is not a problem for me now but I used to use a small wood stand I built to get the height differential.

Gonna try my hand at a pilsner on Friday. I have 4oz of Vanguard hops I want to use & this seems like a good project.

Auto siphon into the carboy, once the kettle gets light enough I lift it up on a desk in my garage to keep good flow.

If the boss lets me I'm going to brew a 10 liter pseudo-pilsner/light ale with: 3.25 # pils/1.5 # 2 row and perle and tettnanger on some notty. 2nd all grain batch.

I also have a Cooper's IPA kit I want to use up, thinking I might mash some 2 row, cara-pils and crystal 120 and hop it up with warrior and amarillo, add the kit and top up to 20 liters if the boss agrees.....

Hope to be able to grab a burner by the weekend too..... Tracked one down at Kent thanks to CorneliusAlphonse.

If you're just brewing 10 liters you can boil it on the stove.

That was the plan, but the sooner I'm "outside" the better for everybody involved.......

[Stusbrews]

Did a smash yesterday, simmered all night, and split the batch today. Couldnt find amarillo so going with 1 columbus and 1 citra. 2 boils will keep the place warm! Lol

I want to do both white house beers, keep us posted on how it turns out. Did you do extract or all grain?

Just getting my feet wet with the extract and steeping grains.

Perfect, I'm gonnado them that way as well I believe

[LTownLiquorPig]

Got my Cooper's IPA on, might be my last kit for a while. Didn't get to Coldbrook for grains/hops so just went with the Munton's Brew Enhancer and a half Oz of Willamette and EKG I had on hand, which I boiled for 15 minutes. Topped up to 18 litres and pitched about a cup of old Notty slurry into 68* wort.

Gonna pass on the other batch I had planned, don't trust my thermometer for mashing, and all my fermenters are in service. Gonna bottle a dry stout tonight that was my first "from scratch" recipe, as well as my first try with steeping grains.
