Telford, I would, but the load light was permanently on as it was, so I assume the thermostat doesn't need overriding. My ears tell me that there was no thermostatic switching going on either. (shrug).

I was using this urn today to sterilise some sweet chili sauce, so I thought I would go on to do a boil test. With the dial set to "max", the load light was permanently on, but it took ages to come to a boil, and then not a very vigorous one. So I think the wattage is not enough to cope with the hea...

Excellent. Keep us posted.

OK. Thanks Telford. I guess I needed to know that. I bought mine for pasteurising fruit juice, but then got all exicted about using it for beer. I'll try a practice with plain water and see how if my thermostat plays nice or not.

Hi Telford, How did you get on? I've got one of these and am also considering it for BIAB.

Hi All from Wimbledon, London, UK. I'm mostly a winemaker, recently taken up making kit beer of the two can all malt variety, feeling inspired to take up all grain brewing using the BIAB technique. So here I am looking to learn what I need to know.
