I've been brewing all grain inside for the last 2 and a bit years. I have a NG stove top and my boil pot covers three burners (the big one and two little ones) they bring my 5 gallon batches to a boil no problem have to turn all three down to 50% once a rolling boil is achieved. (takes wort ~20 - 25 minutes to come to a boil).
So I'm quite comfortable inside by the Big Screen TV for football season, warm in the winter.
But the wife has been making noises and during are short summer heating the whole house up is an issue. Been looking at this Camp Chef Tahoe TB90LW that's on sale at Peavy Mart right now. Three burners 30,000 BTU each. Will be using it in conjunction with 10 gallon Boilermakers. I also have a 1,000watt bucket heater I use for auxillary heat when necessary.
These are my individual issues. One, I am in Northern Alberta. So outdoor brewing is not really feasable for almost 6 months so it packing up small is a real plus. (will revert back to indoor and face the rath of SWMBO in the winter) Also that means buying sculpture from Northern Brewer is not possible and shipping a bit prohibative from More Beer.
Two, I'm a pretty comitted batch sparger and probably will continue so gravity etc. is not that important. (although I al ready have a March pump).
Any experience on these? Will it take two hours for a boil? Will the legs collapse soaking me with 5 gallons of boiling wort?
TIA
