In my pumpkin recipe I found that baking the pumpkin as instructed above worked best in my situation. The only difference was I mixed brown sugar in to caramelize with the pumpkin and then added that to my mash.

Nice augiedoggy, much easier to keep clean and less possibility of leaks

I will say that when I rebuild my RIMS, I would switch from the current setup to the tri-clover w/ ss element. Cleaning would be much easier with out having to tape and crank pipes.
