    Keggle skirt holes for additional burner venting

    I've seen a thread here on the exact same subject, only, I can't find it, and I can't remember what the conclusion was (lot of help I am lol). The guy did some before and after measurements with timing how long it took water to boil in the keggle before and after the holes. I think the thread...

    Is the boiling point of wort above 212F?

    The boiling point of any liquid raises whenever anything is dissolved in it. You could do some calculations with the simplification that the only thing changing the density is sucrose. I would guess that the change is not much, but there will be a change. I would work out the formulas, but...

    Got called a meth dealer...

    You're not doing anything wrong. As long as that stays the same, the only one getting in trouble if crazy calls the cops is crazy. Also, is it weird that I want someone to call the cops on me because they think I make meth? I should move the brew operation from the back yard to the garage...
