I have this one. I think it's 40,000 or 50,000 BTU. You could get away with less but this one's $50 and works great. ![]()

That's the same one I have. You can decrease the to boil time by increasing gas flow and air flow to get the most efficient flame (blue with maybe the slightest yellow at the tips).

When I bought my first (and so far) only burner, I opted for a jet burner since I have a 12.5 gal brew kettle and go with full volume boils. I didn't want to get stuck with my only burner being too small.
Ace Hardware Outlet sold me a 200K BTU burner (HVDT12) for $21 and the host/regulator (PRES3HOS) for $25 + $20 shipping. This little guy works great! The only problems I have with it are 1) even a slight breeze carries off a lot of the heat and 2) it uses what I feel to be a lot of propane. I think both of these problems will be resolved when I build my heat shroud for it.

I HIGHLY recommend the KAB5 banjo burner. The thing appears to be made for heating 15 gallon kegs.
I can't get the fire cool enough to not boilover my 9gallon pot.

If you build your own stand, this one is hard to beat. It may be ugly, but its a fast burner. http://www.agrisupply.com/product.asp?pn=30295&cn=5400001&bhcd2=1218669125

This is the burner I am thinking about ordering. My only question is will a single regulator off of a single propane tank, flowing through 1/2 black pipe, be enough to keep 3 of these 170K burners going full throttle? More than likely I would only run 2, but you never knwo!
I am talking about the burners posted by beerthirty above from www.agrisupply.com |

I run 2 with no problem going from high pressure regulator to 1/2 black pipe manifold then through 1/4 copper tubing to each burner. Just got my third, haven't set it up yet but I foresee no problems.
Make sure your stand is very sturdy. I have bowed mine slightly from the full weight of 2 keggles on it under full throttle burners. The metal stand actually blued from the heat.
