I was wondering does anyone have experience using one of these burners? A friend gave it to me and he had never used one like this but its probably 15 yrs old. I emailed King Kooker who appears to be the company selling these Even though their name is not on the label, its manufactured by...

Thanks for all the comments guys :mug:

Yea as Oginme said experiment with your oven. Mine has a low temp setting...its a Bosch which is a pretty decent oven. I had done this a few times years ago but then also just messed around with trying to use the stove top flame to control temp, but as you've probably learned thats kind of a...

Lol thanks and yes that would have been SO much easier. Its just after i found part of the old sparge system i got excited and started tinkering...and well yea, it was messy. The next morning the dog was licking sticky mash wort I missed in clean up off of the cabinets lol

Thanks for all of the advice guys. I actually ended up doing as suggested in my 5 gal pot. Yes, I have another 4 gal pot, so I had 3 gal of..worked out to be 161 deg water, mash in held at 153...then i put in the oven which was like 110degree ambient. Held 153 the full 75 min. Then I put 2...

ok thanks

Awesome, thank you! i can do a sparge to add volume as you suggest. Should I set the water temp at 168 as BeerSmith suggests or should i do it with the mash temp of 150?. I guess 168 would be more of a mash out?

Hey Guys Just getting back to brewing after 15+years. Working on getting my 2 x 15 gal kegs set up for larger scale operation but not there yet, so i'm anxious to get a beer going and decided to do a 3 gallon batch all grain in the kitchen. Went with all grain to save cost and because i...

Just a comment...this is an interesting thread to me. Since the 90's when I got into brewing, I considered doing the same thing, but a full time job that involves travel made it unrealistic for me. I go to the local shops to: support the local businesses as much as possible; get advice on...

The screen fits the bottom curvature of the keg perfectly it was only the dip tune concern. But I think I want a half inch tube and this bottom looks like it would fit better with relatively low cost vs other screens.

Well I just used a pipe cutter and cut down the pick up tube. Have an old flange tool if I can find it that should solve it

Yea thanks I planned on attending one soon

Thanks. Northernbrewer said it should be fine for keggle. The reason for the poor alignment I eluded to In that we did things over several years without thinking. The holes were drilled a few years prior to getting the false bottom. I would just hook it to a valve and et the flanged end of dip...

Great I might do that!

Hey All, I've been shy about posting this because its a bit embarrassing. 16 years ago my friend and I began our quest to upgrade to 15 gal kettles...we got 2 free kegs from his parents bar, had the tops cut out, and in our enthusiasm drilled holes for the valves. We did this without having...

When you and your drunk buddies decide to to find a spot for the masses of wine corks you also happen to have (<all hobbies revolve around alcohol>)...you find wine corks conveniently fit through the neck of a carboy, but upon sobering up you realize you will never get them out without breaking...

Hi there, yes 10 gal batches are my ultimate goal but not starting out. I'll test the waters with some 5 gal batches and get used to whatever I come up with. I could just take over the kitchen and use the old equipment ...or use my burner with the old 5 gal pot i have. Its 100 F and humid...

Yea i've heard of the MO Mashers I may check them out, but I dont mind driving and checking out other clubs around town...all in the name of beer its worth it!

Hullo thar fellow MO guy

I live north near Liberty. I love the set up - clueless on electric set ups but i have room in my basement so now you have me thinking lol
