    Illinois Vortex Stir Plate

    I have two of these and really only ever use one at a time, so I am selling my vortex stir plate. Comes with stir bar as well (picture is a stock photo). Overall, its a really good stir plate. I have had up to 4000 ml on it, and it created the desired vortex no problem. I'm a big proponent...

    NuWave Induction Heating

    I'm just getting into induction myself, and I suppose the 1300w presents some issues: 1) I have heard of people using 1800w induction cookers to do full boil 5 gal batches, but they said that it just barely came to a boil and took a long time to get there. Never done that myself, so don't...

    Illinois Blichmann, Burners, Refractometer

    I had 6 gallons of fairly cold water (65 deg) and I got it to a boil faster than I can with propane- still playing around with it and settings on the cooker. 3000 watts (plugs into 220/240v) seems to do the job Sent from my iPad using Home Brew

    Illinois Blichmann, Burners, Refractometer

    Did some research on Blichmann and they are described by others as not the correct stainless steel for induction. I did test my induction cooker with it and it began to heat up, but my guess is that it is not as efficient as others. Just bought megapots, and heated 6 gal of 65 degree water to...

    Illinois Blichmann, Burners, Refractometer

    Making the switch to induction, and have to get rid of my Blichmann Boilermaker. Also have a new-in-box Darkstar Burner, 1 year old Banjo Burner, and brand new brix/SG refractometer. Most of this is rather heavy so I would refer local pick up, but will consider shipping on the refractometer...
