1/2" threaded nipples used to connect to frame.
All burners have been replaced with banjo style low pressure propane burners fed from the valves with flexible gas line. Burner's are attached to stainless steel heat shields which are bolted to the frame. Results are a much cleaner, hotter and...
It might be a little taller than your pot but big deal. Extra height won't hurt. Just cover the whole rig with sanitized foil and chill on brother chill on!!
BOYS AND GIRLS, MOMS AND DADS, WE HAVE IGNITION!!
We now have more than adequate gas flow. These flames are with the valves about 1/4 the way open. Full open sends up a 3 ft. high flame on all three burners at once!!
Even the late model Blue Rhino tank I have works if I turn on the ball...
That's the regulator. I stopped in my local Ace hardware on my way home today and found a 2 ft. long 1/2" ID gas flex hose and fittings including another 3/4" ball valve. I'm go'na try hooking up this piping to an old propane tank I have that doesn't have the 3 leaf clover valve handle which...
I bought a two stage Benzomatic regulator with POL connection from Lowes today and rigged it to the propane tank then hooked that to the 20' of gastite piping. Removed the old regulator from the brew stand. I didn't get near enough gas flow to brew with. I could get one burner to put out about a...

I was under the impression that natural gas jet's holes on these burners were even larger than the jets used for low pressure propane. ??
Could I hook up this 3/4" flexible gas hose to my "house" propane and get enough gas volume to power the burners, and if...
I bought a Brutus 10 system thru Craig's list. Guy had built his brew system using Natural gas jet burners. I only have access to either "house" propane, which I believe from my research is 11" WC (low pressure), or of course, bottled propane.
The rack has 120v solenoid valves like these...
I drank the hydrometer test beer and it tasted OK to me. No OBVIOUS strange flavors but I'm certainly not an expert in what it should taste like. Hydrometer reading was supposed to be 1.012, this read between the 1.012 & 1.014 marks.
Howdy Folks,
Newby here. I've much enjoyed reading and learning from this forum. It's been very helpful in this new endeavor of mine.
Today I racked and bottled my third batch, a Blue Moon Clone, extract version, Safebrew 58 dry yeast. It's been in primary for 20 days at around 60 to 64...
