Ok, I did a Partial All Grain over the w/e.... LOOOONG day of brewing, but I think that the results may be suppirior to my other beers (well to date anyway), time will tell all.
So I'm thinking, hmmm All I did was heat several batches of 175 deg water and store in Cooler, using a 3 gal SS pot. I then had my 130 (30min) protien rest and subsequent 153-155 (30 and 30 min) Steeping. Folowed by filtering in Bag to Boil kettle (removing grains) and rinsing grains with 170+ 1.5gal water (from cooler).
Not too difficult and it appers that I got the OG the kit was supposed to have. 1.070 (I took the OG 24 hrs late and had 1.069). So it seems that I should be able to manage an all grain on the stove.
But my question is if I pre heat the water I need (as I've always done). What do you think about puting a 7+ gal kettle on the glass stove top?
Would you do it? or am I risking the stove top?
Cheers
