Got a late start yesterday. By the time I was ready to boil the temperature outside with wind chill was 7 degrees. After cleaning MLT I look over and notice the boil not even close to starting. Look under the pots and only see a trickle of flame. My guess is that there was condensation in the gas line and it froze up.
I'm thinking of how I can save all this wort and try the boil after it warms up outside when the wife says, What about the camp stove? I though that there was no way it would be hot enough, but the little Coleman had both pots boiling in around 20 minutes. All was good until the CO2 alarm went off, but cracking a couple of windows did the trick.
Woke up to a happily bubbling carboy this morning.
(Yeah, thats two pots so that I can AG in the kitchen.)
