Looking to get a dedicated propane burner and kettle. Anyone have recommendations?
Depends on your budget and long term brewing plans. I was very happy with a MegaPot and DarkStar burner for many years. Then I got some Keggles and a second hand Edelmetal burner. Now I have a Ruby Street single tier gas setup. I plan on upgrading to electric this year.
If I was doing it again, I’d seriously consider going with a all-in one like the grainfather / brewzilla / etc.
The grainfather looks really nice. Hadn’t considered electric but that would be nice for winter months!
I also have a megapot and love it.
I’ve been using a 120v 1800W induction burner for years, but will be looking to upgrade soon. It’s JUST powerful enough to boil 7 gallons or so, but it takes a long time to get there. If your setup allows for an electric brew, I think a 220v induction burner would be the bees knees personally. Extremely efficient, assuming you have electric rates in most of the US. Same might not be true for people in Europe.
That said, most setups (mine included) dont make plugging into a 220v receptacle convenient. For that reason, I’m going to a propane burner soon. Curious to see what others recommend here
