I googled this and couldn't really get a good answer.
Would a 1000 W portable electric burner be enough to MAINTAIN (not get to temp) 2-3 gallons of water in a aluminum pot?
I'm planning on using my propane burner to get to 155°F then transfer the pot to the hotplate which will be connected to my nifty Ranco temperature cotroller to maintain the 155°F. I'll then go back to the propane burner for the full on boil.
Does this make sense? Is 1000 W going to be too wimpy? Am I asking repetitve already been answered 5 million time questions?
