Tippy -single tier brew stand

[Transamguy77]

To be honest I am not really sure how to do it and I already have 3 30 psi regulators with hoses. I would like to eventually get to that point, but I wanted to have a good amount of control over the burners and , again, I am not sure how to handle gas with pipe/fittings/pressure/etc and how it all fits together.

Also, maybe I am wrong here, but wouldnt the tank freeze with nearly 300,000 btus being pulled of a single tank?

I'll post some picks of my set up to get you thinking.

And as far as the tank freezing, it is rare that you will have all 3 going at the same time. The only time I have 2 going at once is when I start heating up my sparge water and I need to bring the temp up on my mash.

Edit: I have had my tank freeze but it usually only happens when it's cold out an almost empty, at that point I just put the tank in a bucket of warm water and it works fine.

You very rarely are running all three burners. But yes, the tank will freeze up if running all three full bore.

But assembling a manifold isn't too hard. Like Transamguy77 said, you can assemble it from fittings at the Blue or Orange store. Nothing to daunting.

Edit: started typing this up and got sidetracked. Didn't see Transamguy77 reply. I didn't go the full 1/2" ID pipe, and used something called a flow control for each burner.

For the single tier, just sections of the pipe, with a "T" for the first two burners, an elbow for the last. Place the flow controls on top of both T's and the Elbow at the end, then short runs of tubing out the other end to the burner. hook up one of your 30psi regulartors to the opposite end of the pipe from the elbow, and you're golden pony boy...

now that is the kind of info I need... step by step THANKS! I may attempt this in the future... once I feel a little more confident. Not sure about those reducers etc though
