Hello All-
I'm looking into making a kettle-soured beer in the near future. I have a 10bbl direct fired brewhouse. Most of the folks I've talked to who have done this have steam jacketed kettles. Has anyone done a kettle soured beer in a direct fired kettle? I have the capacity to set the temp when the burner fires and an effective whirlpool circuit, but I'm a bit concerned with the heat being a bit "uneven" or potential scalding or unacceptable temperature swings.
I'm probably overthinking this, but though I'd throw it out to the collective. Does anyone have any experience or thoughts or advice on this?
Thanks and Cheers- Mike
