Hillbilly Stills. They are online. A heating element is available.
Vevor has a digi boil knockoff. I could get that and a triclamp lid. When a cheap pot still tower to start... add reflux and plates if i stay going....

that probably was the whole bill.. not just the tip. The waiter looked mad like they walked out on the check.
Well my heating elements are triclamped into my brew pots too. Yea I have seen the keg kettle. I ran a keggle brew system for years and luging kegs around get old.
And I don't like the though of only having the 2" access to the top. Id like a good 6-12' clamp on lid to get access to clean.

Brew day was yesterday.....first brew in 4 or 5 years. This went very very well. Brewing in my electric system is so smooth. Granted...I forgot how much work this is. I took it slow and didn't rush. I had to knock a bunch of rust off my process. My system is a custom 2 vessel electric RIMS system in built. I didn't not RIMS but just BIAB in the boiler. These are 20 gallon pots. I'm really contemplating of downsizing pots. Because not sure I need to so 10-15 gallon batches anymore. But soldering in triclamp fittings to these pots were a bitch.
Brewed a New Zealand Pale Ale I developed years ago using motueka and wakatu hops.
I forgot to do all the measurements throughout so not sure of what I'm gonna get but the measured OG is well above my estimated. So either I miss weighed my grains or both of my refractometers are off. So expecting a sneaky high ABV.
Brewing a neipa soon. Neighborhood is having an event and the people wanted homebrew. So I should have 10 gallons of pale and 10 gallons of Neipa ready.

So I have brewed beer for 20 years. Looks like I need to get into this.
So what should I but? I'm cheap. I want triclamp. So I can add plates or reflux later. Love it to be electric as I built an electric controller for my beer setup.

Typical Democrat thing to do. Accuse the other side of thing that they are doing. Election Cheating, Tax fraud, pedophilia.
quote:another anecdotal tidbit. 25 years ago before all these double and triple jet burners, i had a thought that the limiting factor in these systems isnt the jet itself. Its the surface area of the propane to evaporate. So i out together a manifold to link 2 20# tanks together to a single jet and from what i remember, went from hose water to boil is 7 mins. My engineer dad was proud.
arent as advertised
It is exactly as advertised, its at a boil in about 8 min and the wind barely slows that down because those tubes help keep the heat on the pot. It also gets to a reboil in under 2 min.
So really i do think the double or triple jest arent "much" better than the single with a high pressure reg. how to define "much" is up for interpretation.
quote:yea a long rest is not essential... bring the temp down without losing moisture is.... and that can be done in 30 to an hour. BUT if you arent eating for 2 or 4 or 8, then resting in a towel and chest is a great tool to utilize. But those 4, 8, 12 hours arent essential to your cook.
You explicitly said it isn't essential to the cooking process, it is in my opinion.
Did you read the next sentence......
rest as long as you need till you eat. it isnt an essential part of the cook. The only thing that matters is getting the meat down from 200+ without losing moisture. Resting in a towel/cooler does this so. Just pulling it and putting it on the counter or in the oven still wrapped does this faster.
Smoke houses are resting because they want to, they are doin git because thats how their schedule is setup due to their quantities.

the one i use is a chinese knockoff of the larger bayou classic one. BG14 i think. IMO those double and triple jet burners arent as advertised. the images shown in this thread kinda prove. Look at all that heat energy being blow out the sides. I run it on an 80qt,
Id like to build a custom one that runs on a 240v electric element. When i converted by brew system to electric, my times to heat up mash an get to boil were cut down significantly because 100% of the energy is going into the water. While these burners are putting in like 20-30%. Would just have to get a basket made with feet to lift it off the element. and for a sack would probably need a 100qt. might be easier with one of those flip basket types.

quote:What did you say? I couldnt hear you over the jet engine.
I have a high performance 120qt pot and love it. Pricy yes but boils water in 7min and works well in the wind.
I like a large banjo burner. might take a couple minutes longer to get to temp but i can whisper sweet nothings into your ear next to it. The sound is worth it.

re: Battery Powered Pressure Washer
Posted by CarRamrod on 4/2/26 at 9:07 am to LanierSpots
yea and electric power washer is great for what it does.... cleaning harder than the hose...... I would get a cheap knock off brand on and amazon deal.
But dont think it will take the place of a gas 4500psi washer to clean concrete efficiently.
I have both. use the electric mostly because its easy and small... when i do a big job the gas comes out.

Yes, the Truman Balcony is structural. That’s not the issue. The reason it didn’t need a separate act of Congress is because it was a smaller, discrete addition handled within existing authority and funding,
quote:and movie theaters and bowling allys and swiming pools....... and...... ballrooms....
Which puts it in the same lane as:
Rose Garden changes
flagpole additions
and Obama’s basketball setup
quote:what am i dodging? I dont care about basketball courts or flag poles..... im talking ballrooms, swimmingpools and movie theaters.
Now here’s the part you keep dodging:
Explain why Obama adding paint and hoops to an existing court is somehow a bigger or different category than Trump installing permanent flagpoles or modifying the Rose Garden.
quote:bigger.... I wonder why....... because the ballrooms scale is more like swimming pools and movie theaters than flagpoles and basketball lines. gosh you are a genius.
ou haven’t addressed that once. You just keep jumping to bigger or unrelated examples to avoid it.
quote:no i dont.... i never said obamas was bigger..... doofus.
So again, either they’re all the same category, or you need to explain why Obama’s was somehow bigger than Trump’s.

You're doing that because you're not capable of even understanding, much less engaging, the argument.
Why are you focusing on those 3 examples. Why could a swimming pool be built in 1933 with private donations....or a bowling alley in the 70s or a movie theater in the 40s. All of this has been done.....to this scale....maybe not but it doesn't put it in a different category. But continuing to focus on Obama and his basketball court is hilarious.
Please keep telling people they are incapable. It really focuses on your self righteousness.
