The house I bought last year has one of those in(under)-sink instant hot water dispensers for making tea and such. I was wondering whether it would be useful to use this for my strike water? It is filtered before getting to the heater, so I shouldnt have much excess debris/chlorine.
My main concerns are that it will not be able to heat the volume of water needed for mash, and also whether it is more efficient doing this than just bringing water up to temp on my outdoor propane burner/stovetop.
I just started doing PM's and my big issue with going the route of AG is that it takes too long for a brewday when compared to extract. So I am trying to find anything I can to make my time more efficient. I have already started to multitask (bottle clean/fill/keg/transfer to secondary/play with the wife's dog/drink homebrew) while waiting for the mash and/or during the boil. That has done wonders for time management because previously I would have to do that kind of stuff either after the session or sometime during the week.
So does anyone think that the instant hot water dispenser will be worthwhile?
