Are you not able to boil without propane with the heat stick? Is it because of the element, the contact that it's 120v? Probably more to it than that. I am not great with how all that works, so pardon my ignorance. Just curious. Cheers

I'm not counting my chickens yet, but I'm 95% sure the HotRod will come with optional all-stainless elements (no rusting bases) and the price is not going to blow your hair back either, woo!
Any hop back testers brew with her yet? I skipped out on getting a blichmann so I'm really curious how this one is turning out.
I FINALLY opened up my gigantic brew hardware order today after moving into my new place...I'm so excited to piece this all together. Everything was extremely well packed, I love the thermometer and the element housings.
240V/5500w ULWD, 14" foldback incoly/stainless
120V/2000w ULWD, 8" foldback incoly/stainless
The lengths were chosen with consideration given to my RIMS tube lengths and common pot diameters.
Will a 14" fit into a keggle with the ferrule without putting stress on the element?
I brewed a fresh hop with my Hop Bomb Jr. last week and it worked great. Except that I tried to stuff way too many hops (2-3 oz fresh) into it, and my wort had so much hop junk from 4# of fresh hops, that the Jr. clogged up halfway through.
So, kids, don't overstuff your hopback. Take it nice and easy. It sure is a great piece of equipment!
Ok thanks. Try it again with 1oz and let's see what happens. Just to clarify this data point, how many oz of hops did you use in the kettle, pellet or whole, bagged or free floating?
