I've use my Bayou Banjo propane burner a few times with mixed results.
Today was the first time I tried to keep 5-6 gallons boiling and it wasn't working all that well. After reading some threads here, I'm thinking wind may have been an issue. I'm just concerned that I won't be able to boil 10-11 gallons if I'm having issues with 5.
But I'm assuming I'm a moron and I'm not using it correctly.
Sometimes if I open the gas flow all the way (especially after it's been burning a while) the flow stops. Other times it works like it should. Hmmm...
Today, if I remember correctly, I started out with a powerful flame and it petered out near the end-with a never been used full tank.
How do you use this burner most efficiently?
Propane full on, restrictor to where you want to gas? Or backwards?
What should the flame look like? Sound like?
Should the propane tank get some frost around the outside of it?
Thanks.
