..So Tax time is coming up and it looks like I have a bit more coming to me than originally planned. As it happens this windfall coincides with my Wife's inevitable realization that when I brew I OWN the kitchen and if she sneezes I will cry...
Basically I am being bumped into the Garage. Alas, like a bird thrown from the nest I must learn to fly...
I am buying a B3-1000. I WANT a fully loaded 1550 but it is not yet that time and I will need a lot more than what Uncle Sam is throwing back my way to get there. In any event I like the gravity VS pump functionality. I am used to it for one, and if the power goes out I'm OK (remember, the Oil IS running out.)
To the point - I have a few questions and concerns in making the jump:
1 - How many (approx.) 10-gallon all grain brew sessions will I get out of a standard propane tank fill?
2 - What is generally used to insulate a SS mash/lauter tun and Sparge Tank (I will miss my coolers)?
Any other words of wisdom are greatly appreciated...
