That is an awesome setup for boilling. How did you make that? Is it just bricks?

Also, I see alot of hops are those all in one brew?

 

[Hello]

How long did it take you to get to a boil? It is pretty awesome looking.

It was a blast! The boil was fine, had one small boil over the pot allowed us to pull it from the grill. This was the first time having use of this oven. We hope to cook on it in the future.

My buddy built it using fire brick on top of paving stone. There is also some T-bars used to help make a chimney (in back) and a hole for heat to hit the pot. It can be adjusted.
Also that is the hops for 2 brew days @ 10 g each day. We brewed back to back days.

not sure how long it took. Gave us enough time to set up and get ready.
