How To Build A High Pressure Burner

[Barley Belly]

Thank you very much for that post. Excellent.

Mud has purchased eight jets, so that would work out perfectly you think?

So long as set up as your picture.

No probs Punkin. 8 jets will crank :super:

What size bolts you using there? I tried to get some bolts to fit in the holes but i couldn't find ones that fit perfectly

Mine were 1/16 NPT plugs

Make a jet using MIG welder gun tips. That way you can vary the jets easly and cheaply.

Ive mean reading heaps about venturi burners on blacksmith forums and they also recommend MIG tips. These burners look unbelievable common.


UPDATE

I did a boil test today and it took about 15 min to boil 10L of room temp water with the burner running at about 70%.

some people on one of those "unmentionable brewing" sites have made there own burners much like yours Jye

I think they are pretty much like weed burners but a little supercharged

MIG tips are the go for jets....many size's,easy to replace

Basically drill a 1/4 hole on your delivery pipe, weld a nut with the same thread as a MIG tip......

Jye,

What sort of regulator are you using?

Being the wet drag... i do hope anybody doing this sort of project is aware of the dangers, and well trained in the needed design aspects to ensure a safe outcome.

The previous version of this high pressure reg from Auscrown.

This is the sort of info Im trying to find. Im now using a Gasfuse but would like to know if there are any safety design aspects.

Us brewers like to live dangerous ..... If in doubt , just consult AHB
