Yeah idiots dumping in frozen turkeys have caused restrictions on fryers now and in the future. These are a safety device only and if you know how to use the thing feel free to hack saw or torch off the posts.

Welcome to the forums; glad to have you. There must be 2 dozen Columbus-ites on here now!

You might consider taking 3/4" to 1" off the flue length. With only the 1/2" or so thickness of the support bars, you might not have proper draft at the higher rates (aka the flame will impinge on itself and be starved for air).

There are several possible causes here and things I think you could try. A common cause is running the burner at too high a pressure or with too much primary air at the mixer face. How much volume and at what pressure is the area between the valve and burner head? LP being denser than air...

That's funny. I did the math also before reading the rest of the thread.

Pics please. That's awesome!

Usually a noticeable slight buzz from 1 pint of 5% beer. On an empty stomach 1 will get me a little loopy. Eating is a big key. Also better for your liver! I'm 6', 195lbs, decent tolerance.

Generally ASCO is a good choice for a good price. Can't say anything on STC...

There are valves called safety valves which are better than a simple NC valve but more expensive. This one is an example. If you just need a valve, try ASCO. I don't know what exactly you need so that link is to the main product page.

On May 2, inlaws will be visiting. What an exciting HB day for me!

BTU is the input rate. Yes, a 60,000 BTU burner will use half much propane as a 120,000 btu burner assuming both are at max rate. This means your tank will last longer, but you don't have as much power available to boil with. 50-75k BTU is a good range for 5 gal boils but depends of the...

Indoors mainly for weather and sanitation concerns I would bet.

If the tube heat exchanger is a route you might want to take there are essentially 2 options: One is to build the heat exchanger yourself. This would require some knowledge of gas combustion, burner design, etc. There is a publication called "The fundamentals of Gas Combustion" it is about...

I'm a gas safety engineer and I love this kind of stuff! For that quantity I'd use an induced draft SS tube-type heat exchanger immersed in the wort. Power wise you are probably looking at 400,000 BTU but that is largely dependent of the efficiency of your system. Also very expensive... If...

Welcome. Beer, like wine, is a great way to explore new things and experiment!

Point and shoot camera only takes 1 hand. Maybe beer's in the other...

Odds are fermentation activity increased from rousing the yeast on the bottom moreso than the sides. That would have just happened when transferring to secondary. Noting really separates the stuff on the sides from the stuff in the bottom. Same stuff, it was just unlucky, happened to be near...

I have the same burner with 30psi regulator. Wind will effect any open burner like this so minimize drafts by brewing when it is not windy, or by forming some flashing metal around the burner, or brew inside or in a garage. I noticed it was not getting enough primary air and drilled out the...

Even the scented bleach would work. Just needs a good rinse which may or may not lightly contaminate whatever you sanitize with it. Probably will be fine. I'd do it. Get some star-san on order. Cheers.

The approximate potential is given in software programs such as Beersmith but individual batches vary. Looking for any one in particular?
