    BG14 Burner questions

    Hi, I've been reading here for a few months after a buddy talked me into brewing. I just built a brew stand and went with a bg14 burner and a regulator. I did a test run today and it seems like I'm not getting enough flame, and it took forever to boil 6 gallons. Like an hour and a half...
