Hi Lylo,
I've been eyeing one of those for quite some time - the shipping to the UK just makes it a bit expensive... Is that siphon able to withstand near boiling temperatures? I no-chill and transfer my wort to the cube asap after final flameout.

Edit the post re the shipping - they don't ship that product to the UK from Amazon.com. Found them on the UK site but there seems to be quality issues...

The jiggler part is made of copper,I just cut it off of the supplied hose and it fit nicely into my silicone hose.I have used it ten times with no problems.Don't forget that copper kettles are used in brewing.

Houston, we've got a boil.
Just finished cleaning up and enjoying my post brew beer. The high pressure regulator seemed to have done the trick. The brew went according to the calculations of the Calculator (I use the Maxi) and I was able to hit all the numbers (volume and gravity).
I've also used a different siphon hose, just to be on the safe side. Will pitch the yeast tomorrow but I'm feeling confident about this one
.
Caution for anybody who might be reading this and want do the same:
The instructions that came with the high pressure propane regulator that I bought clearly states that it should NOT be used with low pressure appliances such as home BBQ's etc (unless you've got a 2nd stage regulator before this appliance). On the Gas boiler ring I've got it states that the nominal working pressure is 28 to 37 millibar. I can therefore only assume that what I've done is not safe.
I am, however, satisfied that the gas ring I've got is the same as used by other people who use it in conjunction with a high pressure regulator and I'm willing to take the risks.
It would be great if anybody with knowledge of LPG and regulators can shed some light on this issue!
Mods/admins - maybe this thread should be moved to the Gas Fired BIAB's thread?
