I also would like to add that I had no idea that the 6200 had double the weight rating of the 6000. I see that the unit weight for the 6200 is 9# versus 8# for the 6000, which probably translates to the capacity increase, the 6200 is also better looking with the stainless top. When I ordered my...

So you actually worked on the circuitry development for the MaxBurton ? I understand that capacitors store energy and am surprised that the stored energy is that great. I am aware of the weight capacity rating for the unit, since I already have the manuals that came with the units and I did...

I started out with a single MaxBurton doing 5 ga. all grain. I was using a 22 quart clad bottom pot. So I was only able to fill to about 19 quarts. It would come to a rolling boil after nearly an hour. And then I would have to top off with a little water to get a little over 5 ga. into the...

I have owned one for over two years. The second one for about 6 months. I love them. GW

Check out my recent post, the info there should be of some interest. https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f170/my-basement-rec-room-induction-setup-391658/ GW

With the two cook tops running at max I am able to get a decent rolling boil but have not had a boil over yet and I get a good hot break. You don't even want to put a lid on this however. :) You also have to be careful to stir slowly and avoid any tidal wave effect and definitely no...

Roughly 3 qts. in an hour. GW

Here are some photos of my brewing rig and a list of components. The heat sources are 2 MaxBurton 1800 watt. Induction Cook Tops My brew pot is a 30 qt. sauce pan, mash tun is a 48qt. cooler with a cpvc manifold. The pot has a stainless valve with pickup tube and everything is plumbed...

May I have a free shipping promo code.......thanks Greg

I have been brewing for a couple of years now and have tried to perfect my ability at making clear good tasting beers. I have just keged a blonde ale which is a style I like to brew from spring to mid summer. I have used gelatin for the first time and I am very impressed with the results. My...

Okay here is the final recipe for my Summer Ale composed mostly of odd amounts of inventory I was trying to clean up. I brewed this on 7/22, moved it to a secondary on 7/28 and kegged it 8/1 I was in a hurry to get this one kegged after switching from bottles and I was out of beer :eek: I...

Well, I am headed down to the basement to get started on this brew, I crushed all the grains yesterday. I will post the final recipe when I get it finalized and follow up with a report in about 2 weeks. Since I am kegging (I just built a Kegerator) I can force carb it up and have something to...

Part of the point is, I am cleaning up my little dabs of inventory of grains that have been around awhile, plus I thought it would be interesting to see how the different flavors meld together. Perhaps sometimes it is ok to color outside the lines.:mug: GW

I really like these grains individually(Golden Promise, Maris Otter, Vienna) so I just wanted to see what they would taste like combined. I have decided to add 1/2 oz. more Chinook and double up on the Centennial for 10min. GW

I used the wrong term I guess, I am pitching 500ml of harvested US05 which consists of 300ml of harvested yeast and 200ml of a low gravity wort to kick it off. I have done it this way numerous times and have had a 100% success rate. When using dry yeast from a sachet I only rehydrate. My bad I...

I will be using a 500ML starter of US05, I plan on reducing or eliminating the Extract. I use Brewsmith and had the Brewhouse Efficiency set at only 60% which gave me OG estimate of 1.061. With my equipment I can only boil 4.8 gallons of wort and have to top off to make 5.25 I use the...

I am putting together a brew using the following: 3# Harrington 2 row 3# Vienna 2# Golden Promise 1# Maris Otter 8oz. Munich 10 4oz. Special B Plus 3# Breiss Pilsen Extract Planned hops include Chinook 60 min. and Centennial 30 min. I was wondering if using this...

Thanks, can't wait for the my kit to get here to install. It will set on my bar and so the faucets will be at a good level for drawing beer. Had it been installed on the floor I would have made a box for it to set on.

I thought I would share some images of my Kegerator conversion, GE model WMO4GAZBB from WalMart. I had some aluminum treadplate that I thought would work for the inside of the door as well as a nice decorative touch to the door. I will be installing two Perlick faucets through the door. My...

Nice craftsmanship, it looks absolutely awesome. GW
