Need some help. I am working on my second batch of beer. For the first, I used the stove to boil and realized that may not be the most efficient.
I bought an outdoor burner: Grand Gourmet Outdoor Cooking System
Steel stand with 160,000 BTU burner.
Before I start on the batch, I just wanted to test it out a bit. I put a bit of water in my 8 gallon stock pot and fired it up. The burner lit as expected.
I walked out about five minutes or so later and the bottom of the pot isn't even warm to the touch. The burner itself is hot. I also can smell propane when I'm close to the burner (after I turned it off).
Since I've never worked with this setup, I don't know if all of this is normal or if something seems off. It is cold outside (about 30 degrees) and I'm doing this in a fairly open-air setting.
HELP!!!
