  No. What would you expect them to say?I dunno, do you really want to use brew equipment that
  isn't rated food-safe? Again, I don't know if it's something that we should worry about, just
  asking.

  I had one of these bucket heaters I used to help do a full-boil on my small gas stove-top.
  After 4 or 5 brews it stopped working. I was about to just buy another one but was looking at
  some of the ama...

  That's a good idea, thanks. What kind of wood do you use? Do you need to make sure it's not

  I've only done a few all-grain batches and my efficiency is still all over the place. I like to

  Yep, tasted it a couple of weeks ago. It's super sour -- undrinkably so -- but I imagine it
  will improve, or at least change with time. It's hard to detect any flavors other than the sour
