I got my banjo burner, mounted it on my brewstand, and I'm doing a test boil/kettle oxidation boil right now. This thing is way quieter than my previous boil burner which is now my HLT burner.

It has taken about 30 minutes to boil less than 5 gallons from about 150.
Also, the spring that is supposed to hold the orifice in place doesn't fit over the brass peice when I screw it in. Maybe someone with a banjo could take some up-close pictures of these pieces for me. I bought it from Northern Brewer but I bought just the burner and regulator, not the stand, so I'm afraid maybe there was some mix-up with parts.
My other concern is that I may have the pot mounted too high over the burner. If someone who has the burner and stand could measure what that distance is supposed to be, thanks in advance. I think this might be the reason it is taking so long.
