Bought a Banjo burner right after Christmas, but haven't used it yet. The wife puts up with indoor brewing, but it'll be more relaxing outdoors where I won't get dirty looks or "how much longer will that take?"

Thought I would give an update on the pot. Midwest let me send the pot back for a full refund even without the box. It cost me about half the cost of the pot to send it back, but I did it anyway. I as so impressed with Midwest, that I ordered the heavy duty 5 gal. I'm happy to report that it boiled water just fine and I'm currently brewing my first batch in it. A dunkelweizen! Stay thirsty my friends.
