I have a flat glass range on my stove. I know it is not ideal for brewing but it is what I have to work with at the moment. I have a 5 gal canning jar enamel pot that I brew with. I am brewing 3.67 gal partial boil extract batches and adding top off water to the fermenter.
My issue is this: I am unable to get the batch to come to a rolling boil after adding the extract and hops. I am able to get the temp up to 210 deg F which I hope is sufficient.
I have just completed brewing my 2nd batch this way (in the primary now). The first batch is bottled and came out fine. Should I do smaller partial boils (i.e. 2.5 gal) and use more top off water or am I worrying too much?
Thanks for any insight you can provide me with!
