I'm just currently in the process of ordering our brewhouse and was really hoping to go with steam.
I've received a few quotes for a new boiler but also discovered a one year old 6bhp boiler located at a university that's underpowered for their needs. I'm able to get a good price for it, however from my understanding I need a 7bhp unit for our 7bbl brewhouse. I guess the question is, will a 6bhp unit be enough to handle it? I'm lead to believe it'll work but is it realistic? Is it going to come to a boil in a reasonable time and handle a 14bbl HLT?
Thanks for your help guys
