More Beer Equipment!


I found a video of the burner in action, pretty impressive!


I purchased another vital piece of my all grain brew system this week, a high output propane burner. Brewing friends of mine have complained about the low output of their standard off the shelf propane burners. Cheap models designed for boiling 5 gallons or less. This just isn't functional for all grain systems needing 15+ gallons. On their recommendation I've been looking for something better, and finally decided on a Kick A Banjo Burner #KAB4. This baby is designed for high output, large quantity boils. The kind necessary for bayou country crawfish boils. This baby puts out a crazy level of heat,
"This propane burner kicks out the minimum of 210,000 + BTUs"
"Heat at top of flame is almost 1000° F."
You know it's a serious piece of equipment when the warnings include
"The Kick A Banjo Propane Burner is a powerful high pressure cooker pulling a high volume of gas from the propane tank. This high gas volume pushes, to the limit, the shut-off safety features on the propane tank."
This should put out plenty of heat for me to begin all grain brewing in a timely manner.
"We have seen it heat a 100 quart pot in just 15 minutes!"
I might just have to get a couple more of these burners and build myself a brewing rack.
