From my understanding copper should only be used with low pressure propane, like what you get from the large twinkie looking ones out in the yard. The BBQ tanks operate at a much higher pressure which is what makes the copper unsafe. But I'm no professional, that's just my understanding of it. I'd rather err on the safer, less potential for explosion (which would over caramelize your wort & that's just uncalled for) side.
Funny, I missed the lack of control for each burner!
Yeah, run one regulator and use the money saved for needle valves at each burner ($8-10 ea.).
I'd never trust a regulator at 0 psi to be a shutoff, cause it isn't!
Decoction by explosion... I love it Ozwald!
