Got me a Brew-Magic V350

[deepcdan99]

Are either of you guys with a BM using the low pressure LP burners? My main burner is burning a huge yellow flame and caking the bottom of my brew kettle with soot. I understand that it's caused by not enough oxygen so I tried to adjust the air manifold and/or the gas valve itself to compensate and still big yellow flames :-(. Other than that the thing ran like a charm. 6 1/2 hour brew day from set-up to break down and cleaning.

Hi Dan,

Are you brewing inside or out? It took some adjustments to get good flame. The brew burner is the most finicky, especially if you are also heating up sparge water. Give French a call if you can't get the adjustments set... Maybe need to replace the regulator.

Mine sits just inside my garage for brewing, and often I have a strong fan blowing for some relief in the Texas heat. I also noticed that switching to a real LP provider seems to have given me a cleaner flame. The exchange tanks only lasted a single brew day, where these fuller tanks will go 2 1/2 each. The soot comes off with some Bartenders Friend and elbow grease.

Best of luck!
