I keep thinking about getting that same pot at Wallyworld and doing 4gallon boils, maybe even 5. Just not sure if my stove will get hot enough to boil that much water and how long it would take.

In the past I have usually done 3 gallon boils too but with this pot maybe more. I had no problems with my crappy old stove doing the boil and this pot it heated up/boiled quicker because the bottom dissapated the heat and prevented scorching so I could turn it up higher.
With Summer coming I was thinking of trying a Lager. I have been very successful with the Ales. Any words of wisdoms or tips??
