Funny for you.

I don't move so good any more. I only have enough "spring in my step" to audibleize my displeasure.

Could drop 20 pounds I guess,,,,,or put the dump valve and hose on my next boiler.

Sorry LW, I thought you were joking about the flip flops. I've had some pretty nasty steam burns from boiling tea kettles and they hurt like hell. Also had a boiling tea kettle fall onto my leg and the scalding hot water ended up in my boot. Nothing funny about a burn ...

No more flip flops,,,,,or just let it sit till the next day...

Is there something magic about a three ring burner? I have a single ring Bayou Classic that puts out plenty enough heat to run a beer keg boiler.

ok just read your post.Everman needs a shed,or a leanto,build one behind the trailor,leave the lawn mower outside the door..it fools them evertime.just saying.. miss direction..

I don't know what kind of propane burners some of you are running but I bought a cast Iron camp stove, my keg sits right on top of it, heats up 10 gallons in about 1hr15min. and I have to look under the keg just to see if it is on. Literally can NOT hear it run. Like an indoor propane stove burner but made for camping.

I was thinking exactly the same Fastill. Mine's the same. I use an 8" outer ring with a 5" inner ring ander a fifty litre boiler. As soon as the heat is right - using the spirit flow, NOT a thermometer - I turn the large ring off, reduce the small one to give a steady pencil lead flow and there is not a sound apart from my occaisional fart (which I do to cover the smell of etho )

I shudder to think of the boiler size that requires a burner that makes any discernable sound. Maybe I'm more deaf that I thought , but the missus agrees that the noise is the least of my problems, of which - according to a couple of forum members - I have many.

Could this be considered a safety risk? If not for the fact it is a flammable gas near a open flame. But also the risk to others health that may be in smelling distance?

at the rate it is taking me to get started, i won't need an outside burner till this fall...

been too friggin hot to do anythin outdoors anyway...

had thought to b living n my rv by now...

this mississippi humidity is killing me...

(spent the last 30 years n a desert...)

but sumtimes this topic is better than tv...

i will find a way to get a quiet burner yet...

[hackware]

just had a wild ass idea...

how about a v8 powered still...?

really...

an e85 powered pickup truck, exhaust powered heat exchanger to a boiler...

plumbing inside a bed mounted tool box...

[slinging]

I bought a turkey fryer kit for cheap and use the burner from it it is quiet and gets the job done I just had to bypass the timer

[OlympicMtDoo]

Thought I had had some bad dump outs but that one is too funny LWTCS, I'll try to remember not to pull that one. Still laughing.

The burner I have now is a jet engine but my old one was one of the circle type burners and it was quiet.
