I recently read an article on techniques of bioling wort for a light colored beer. I use an electric stove and it said that an electric stove was harder to boil with because the eye would burn so hot that it would caramelize the sugar resulting in a darker color. This particular article recommended taking a metal coathanger and bendin it to a triangle to place flat on the eye under the pot. Sounds like a good thought right? Wrong. The stovetop got so hot the eye shorted out and melted the metal connection point right out of the eye! Now the stove is ruined basically! Has anyone ever heard of or tried doing this before with success or was my stove just a POS?
