One boil over on this and SWMBO would get a Lawyer!

Very nice stove! Amazing the output on commercial units. I brewed a 1/2 keg 15.5 gallon batch on the commercial stove at my hunt club a few weeks ago. About 18.5 gallon preboil in a 20 gallon pot. Took a while, but the stove handled it.

Outdoor brewing is great, the only thing I despised was the set up and tear down, then hauling beer downstairs to the basement to ferment. If there is any way possible to set up a basement brewery, do it! Even a ghetto set up beats hauling all your equipment around on brew day....makes a brew session so much easier.
 
My gas range has one 15000 btu burner. I can bring 7 gallons of wort to a boil fairly quickly. It is what I would call a nice rolling boil; I can't achieve the roiling geyser boils that an outdoor propane burner can achieve, though.
