Re: Keggle
Do a water only run. Not all 10 Gallon kettles and heat sources are the same.

Re: Keggle
I'm not sure which variables add more to boil-off, but elevation, humidity, surface area and BTUs of your burner all come into play. Presumably your kettle size and elevation will remain constant, but humidity you have no control over.OntarioBeerkegs wrote:Do a water only run.

Currently on tap: Nothing!
In keg: Still nothing.

Re: Keggle
If you are brewing with it tonight with a 40L batch I would use 12% for a propane burner to start off.
"Twenty years ago — a time, by the way, that hops such as Simcoe and Citra were already being developed, but weren’t about to find immediate popularity — there wasn’t a brewer on earth who would have gone to the annual Hop Growers of American convention and said, “I’m going to have a beer that we make 4,000 barrels of, one time a year. It flies off the shelf at damn near $20 a six-pack, and you know what it smells like? It smells like your cat ate your weed and then pissed in the Christmas tree.” - Bell’s Brewery Director of Operations John Mallet on the scent of their popular Hopslam.

Re: Keggle
I have beersmith setup for 5L/hr with the OBK 15G kettle.
Boil-off percentage will change as the batch volume changes. Brewing a 10g batch will result in the same amount of boil-off (5L for me) as a 5g batch.

Re: Keggle
I have a 58L keggle. I was consistent with 6L per Hour boil off on 21L batches on my turkey fryer burner. When I changed to the Blichman burner, my boil off changed to 5L per hour.
