I've been reading through this forum and a Biab forum as well but still cant seem to settle a question.
Using a Turkey Fryer as a electric brew kettle allows entry level and is accepted. I have seen articles related to oils and head formation and retention loss.
The Aluminum pot and basket seem to be slightly porous.For a example of my quandary I used to have a 40 cup coffee pot that I only used for my winter spiced rum recipe. the premis being the coffe will always taste like the spiced rum. Ididn't see a problem but I accepted it with out question.
I recently ran some timed heating test for time to 170 and time to boil. afterwards i found there was still some oils that leeched out of the assembly even after a "good" cleaning. I use liquid shortening for turkey and Potatoes, no seafood. to compound my confusion "Brewdogs" did a clambake Boston Ale last episode i watched.
I am uncertain if running another boil, perhaps with oxyclean or dishwasher pellets would be acceptable to remove the oil or is my whole worry moot
What say Ye?
Thanks!!
