Rub some dishwashing detergent on the underside of your pot/keggle before u brew and any soot just wipes off easily :)

My high pressure reg from the UK didn’t fit the bottles here but I unscrewed the threaded connection (can’t remember what it’s called) and replaced it with one from an old bbq that had been thrown out.
NASA burner from amazon arrived yesterday.
Just need to find the threaded connection you talk about off an old BBQ.
Does anyone (who has bought a US NASA burner) know the actual dimensions of the "discussed" adapter? Im hopeless with thread size...

You can buy one from a Gas Shop if you can’t find an old bbq.

Thank you, went on a hunt for an old BBQ this arvo...no luck.
Gas shop it is, when I can align my working hours to actually get to one!

I will be very happy if I can find this adapter easy enough.
Burner capable of 150 000BTU for 35bucks landed, build a stand ( I was lucky enough to score one of a mate for a few good brews), find the adpater, and brew big!
Amazon had it to me in 2 weeks :)

Do you brew good brews??
Well, I told him I'd fix him up with a few good brews...last brew was a bit iffy but the next one will be a corker. I can feel it in my bones.
My new burner will enable me to produce twice as much in one hit...better be good!
I have way to much respect to palm off crappy beers to this bloke...
I digress, seems I've railroaded this thread.

On the flip side, a medium adjustable reg seems on all accounts to be the reg for the job...
The thing I never unstood about regs is whether when you adjust from the reg you are messing with the gas/air efficiency at the burner. Surely some of these bigger burners would have a sweet spot and need a certain amount of grunt to allow them to run efficiently.
