Thought I took my name off swap list a couple of weeks ago. Have fixed it here as I only got a brew down 2 days ago so no chance of being ready. I'm heading over now with kettle and some other bits and will be back after dinner so hopefully the brew is still going then. 7th July - 9th July...

Can someone let me know what time to drop the kettle off? I can bring it around anytime then I have some other running around to do. I'm hoping to get back for the dogs breakfast boil but may not be back till night.

Have some tri clamp fittings to suit 1/2" and 3/4" silicone hose so should be sorted for cube filling.

Finally got time to sort out the BFK. Acid cleaned and removed all the PVC. Sourced some brass fittings and pressure gauge. Test fired the kettle yesterday. Semi successful. Only ran 1 burner as I only had 1 full gas bottle, got approx. 300L to the boil with relative ease until the gas bottle...

Not sure, I got told by a rinnai guy not to bother. Have since been told by a plumber it's not too bad so who knows who is right. I can't find anyone who has actually converted one.

Wh I'm after an LPG version and can't be arsed with a conversion. I am keeping an eye out but nothing popped up so far. Might just end up getting a new one. If you see an LPG version I will grab it.

I have taken Friday off work so plan to drop the gear off in the morning maybe between 9 & 10? I'm in Scoresby so not far away. Ill stick around as long as I can but have a birthday to attend Friday arvo/night so may not be back till the Sat morning depending. Hopefully I can stay long enough...

At the very least I rekon bring it as a back up, but should try use it and see how it goes so for these larger scale brews we not relying on electricity which we know struggles. With a bit of work could be a good basis for a large volume temp ramp system, We can see how it works and design a...

Has 100mm shielding will see how it goes. If it all works ok then I will look at permanently mounting the burners and can then add further shielding. I haven't looked at the grant idea for a while but simplistically could we just gravity out of mash tuns into a stainless tank with a burner...

Sort of on topic but I know a few micros that use the CIP spray ball to bring in sparge water and they're not worried about HSA. I was less worried about my own system after seeing this so now I limit where possible but not anal about it.

I have put 100mm sheet down the 4 sides as a wind break but sounds like it needs to be completely enclosed? Also turns out brass is usually used to prevent sparks/static when assembling/disassembling so have ordered some brass fittings and gauges. Can't see stainless being an issue here anyway...

The threads are all 1/4" BSPT I just haven't screwed them all the way in during test fit. Moved the gauge. Will call some people tomorrow but I like the idea of the pressure gauge so there is a variable to adjust when aiming for a certain boil off rate.

Who knows stuff about gas? Below is what I have conjured up from some bits and pieces. Before I go to a gas type place who can answer me this: - Do I need a specific gauge? I have a compressed air one currently but does it need to be made of certain materials? - Materials, assume stainless is...

The burner looks like a standard design available is many other places so hopefully ok. I was going to have them moveable beneath and have built a slide bar to mount the burners to but when I picked up the burners the height of the standard frame suits to within 1mm(just lucky) so I think I will...

Ooo nice, haven't seen that site before. So looks like I need to find some LPG suitable TEE's and gauges. Same style burner so more confident now that 2 burners is fine.

Good and bad news: Good - BFK now has burners. Can bring Friday day to give a test run before the Saturday brew if people are doing a pre brew? I'm not far from FTG so can drop off but I have father in laws bday the Friday night so won't be there until late if at all. Might be there Sat only...

Burners sorted I think. 2 x Keg King units, I believe idzy uses one of these burners under his 600L so here's hoping two is enough here. The regulators that come with them say max 2kg/hr propane which I don't think will be enough so trying to find a couple of high pressure adjustable regulators...

Lookin good, I'll be in for sure once it's good to go! Got a tap list of regulars/rotations?

I'm currently waiting for the high pressure burners @ Keg King to come back in stock(same one that Idzy uses). Hoping to have time to get two mounted to the stand and test boil off rate prior to the day but no guarantees at this stage. Might end up being a suck it and see on the day. I will try...
