In prep for my brew day saturday and my first partial i decided to see just how long it would take to boil water on my gas stove.
I put 4.5 gallons of water into my brew pot and cranked on the burner. It took between 90 and 100 mins to reach boil.
I figure i will be boiling less than 4.5 gallons and the starting temperature of my wort will be about 160degrees so that time should come down significantly - im thinking 80 minutes tops (hoping to reach boil in 60).
I was wondering if worst came to worst and i didnt get the wort boiling for over 90 mins - if that would be a problem.
im sure the quicker you reach a boil the better and im debating buying a turkey fryer. However, i would love to be able to save some cash and brew inside.
