I have a large pot but the bottom surface area is too large to heat up on my glass top stove and I've tried it and it is way too long straight 5.5 gallon filled. I want to do all grain inside but fear I can't get a boil.
I guess I could fill the big pot with about 4 gallons then a smaller 2 gallon till the smaller boils then combine in hopes to speed up boil in the larger one? will combining the 1 boiling to one not boiling cause any oxidation before first hop addition?
anyone have any ideas on method or madness on this... much appreciated on any ideas to fix the situation without a turkey fryer or larger stove. wife allows this and the great stink of grains but I can only push so far friends.
also my smaller 5 gallon is SS the larger is aluminum does one conduct heat faster maybe a larger SS pot with the smaller bottom diameter can help?
thanks for any input I'm slowly approaching my first AG!
