Got a new Johnson Digital Temp Controller today and a bung with a dip tube for the probe. Excited to try and actually control fermentation temps now, but... The probe doesn't fit into the tube. The crimps where the metal cap is attached to the wire are just slightly too fat. Anyone have...

Looking around at turkey fryer burners to take my brewing process out on the patio... And to hopefully speed up bringing things to temperature! What is a recommended BTU fryer for 5 gallon batchs? I did a search as I'm sure this has been asked before, but couldn't find the answer...
