Blichmann inaugural brew!

[dhelegda]

So I took advice of many and I got the Blichmann floor burner! I am currently brewing my first brew on it and damn this baby's doesn't mess around! The inaugural brew is a Black IPA!View attachment ImageUploadedByHome Brew1448995769.507698.jpg

Nice! I got mine years ago and it's as solid as ever. Never any problems.

We'll see how the Black IPA turns out!

I own three. Solid investment.

That is quite the trip wire you set up there. Hope that was just for the pic and not how you leave it on brew day. Yikes.

The blichmann burner does rock though.

After seeing how my stove's flame behaved under my 10 gallon brew kettle, I'm getting tempted to buy one of these.

But of course the LHBS is out of stock...

I suspect it's a rather rare LHBS that stocks much Blichmann bling.
Everything seems to be drop-shipped these days.

Still, the wait is totally worth it. I've been running a pair of them for years and have spent literally zero minutes on burner issues.
The burner is built better than a tank and being all stainless it'll out live us all...

Cheers!

Took a week from the day I ordered it to the day I received it.

Nice one. I got one earlier on in the year. I got the leg stands so I can transfer from the kettle valve without hassle. How do you get the wort from your kettle at that level? I assume you lift it onto a bench?

I picked up a Blichmann right out of the gate and love it. That sucker sure can heat fluids in a hurry.

Yes I pick it up and set it on a table. It's only 3 feet!
