I recently bought a new Bayou SQ14. I have not used it for brewing yet. I will be using it this weekend for the first time. But I did try it out a couple of weeks ago and again yesterday to make sure it will work for my brewday Sunday. Both times it would flame out on me. The first time I thought it was because of the wind. So I made a windproof out of stainless steel and tried again yesterday. I had to turn the regulator on all the way in order for me to light it up. It flamed up and started to burn some of the black paint off the top. once I turned it down to adjust the flame it would go out. Even just a 360 turn to the off position it would flame out. And sometimes it would take several attempt for it to light up. Do I have a problem with my regulator? Or my burners. I tried adjusting the flame control shutter. But if I turned it one way to much it would flame out again. Am I doing something wrong? I read on here that it could be turning on the regulator first before turning on the propane tank. Should I take the regulator hose off and start all over? I have till Sunday before I use the SQ14 to brew. Any ideas would be apprieciated. Thank you.
