more easy = hot water and ammonia, let them sit for a while, labels and glue come right off.

Is it as easy on fuel as they say?

Since you have one, how long does it take to get ten gallons up to a boil? I am just trying to decide which one to get.

The Bayou also has an air damper but I am not sure about the regulator difference.

I have 1 boil kettle and two 10 gal round coolers. I heat the strike water and dump it into the mash tun. Then heat more water and dump it into the 2nd cooler for my sparge water. By the time the 1st cooler can be drained into the boil kettle, the second cooler will stay hot enough to batch...

Just wondering if anyone knows the difference between the bayou banjo burner and the blichmann burner besides the stainless frame. It seems to be the same cast iron burner. Could the regulators be different? Are the BTU's the same? Any info would be great. Thanks

Thanks for the info, I will be racking to the keg sunday.

how long should I let it sit in the keg

It does not call for dry hopping. Thanks for the info...I will let it sit for 2 wks in the secondary. I am going to try the cold crashing before kegging and see what happens.

Hey guys I just signed up here and had a question about the midwest kit. I was wondering how long to age the beer in the secondary before kegging. So far I let it sit in the primary for 7 days then transferred to secondary.
