Pietro, thank you for all of the valuable information. I have the ability to get a a 32qt turkey fryer and propane stove for 35bucks. Is it worth it to do a full volume boil? Other than modify my hop additions is there anything else i should know?

Whoops, sorry, not sure how I missed this one.

Well if you are doing brew in a bag, then you are doing a full-volume boil (?). As far as the ‘extract/PM list of upgrades’ question, full-volume boil, mashing (AG), temp control, and rapid chilling are usually four of the most cited as best bang for your buck for better beer.

As far as the price, I don’t know much about the efficiency or heat output of that burner, but it sounds like a hell of a price to me. Is the stockpot aluminum or SS? Very easy to add a weldless valve to a pot like that with a step drill. I’d jump on it regardless assuming the thing(s) is (are) in decent shape. :cheers:
