I am going to try my first BIAB today and have a question about cooktops. My grain bill will allow my to do a traditional BIAB in my 8.5 gallon pot (just barely).
My range has a very powerful "turbo boil" burner. I have boiled 3.5 gallons of water quickly in the past, so I think my stove could heat 7.5 gallons of water.
However, I am not comfortable putting that much weight on my stove. Anybody else put that kind of weight on their stove?
As an alternative, I can sparge my grains in a bucket and limit my stove weght to 5 gallons. Or I can break out the propane burner and move it outside. However, I will be watching my 20 month old son this afternoon...not too excited about managing him around a propane burner.
