Natural gas stub with a homemade burner for the WIN!

Nope, i've been Brewing that way from the get go, and let me tell you I can't wait to convert to electric.

Recirculating mashes
Pin point mash temps
Step mashing
Cheaper than propane

All a bonus over a "manually" operated gas burner.

I basically tell people ask that it's about 1/10th the cost of using propane.

Of course, electrical costs and propane refill costs change from area to area, but 1/10th is a safe bet in most North American cities if you're trying for a rough estimate.

That said, going electric to save money was probably the last reason I did it. I would have done it even if it cost more than propane.
