Hey, y'all. For those of you with a 50L Braumeister, how long does it take you to get to 65° C? Also, what kind of power do you have running to the unit?
We heated up 55L of water to 65° C and it took four hours.
We're going to be looking at the unit over the next couple of days so hopefully, we can get everything under control!Something is wrong. I had a 1650w element in a 15 gallon kettle and it would get 13 gallons to 150F in around ~1.5 hrs. So surely an element twice the size would get you there much quicker.
I agree with @hottpeper13, check your wiring. If that receptacle hasn't been used in a while check with a multimeter to ensure you're getting 240v. I'd probably flip the BM over and just ensure everything is connected well and nothing got gnawed on by something in storage.
