5 Is Not Enough
Well-Known Member
My brew pot is very wide - 24". My Banjo burner is pretty wide too - 10". My problem is that as I crank up the BTUs to get 20+ gallons on boil, the flames lick up the sides of the pot.
Without knowing the science behind it, it just seems to me that if the pot were lifted above the flame, so the flame would burn straight-up (as intended?) before hitting the bottom of the pot, that I may see better efficiency.
Any thoughts on orientation of the pot on the burner?
