I'm trying to get back in on a cheaper basis - previously ended up with about 12 gallons cast wort on a 20-gallon Spike propane system. I want to go in on the cheaper basis because it's quite possible I'll be expanding later, possibly to a HERMS of one make or another (never done electric before, but seeing a lot of pluses now).
Using a 10-gallon converted Igloo for the MT and an existing 7-gallon stockpot from our former restaurant for sparge. Presuming brewhouse efficiencies as before, I'm estimating around 6.5 gallons pre-boil for a final 5-gallons going into the fermenter. Unlike previously, just an incidental note, I'll be doing a manual WP as opposed to pumps and the two ports and pickups on the Spike system.
Our stove burners won't cut it and we don't have 230V service. Is it possible to get a 110V induction that can handle a good strong boil in a reasonable time for this wort volume?
