Landlord.
Had a try at heating up my water using an old converted wood burner =
Used to fill with wood from top
so cut a door further up and moved up the grate too
not much water in but temp rising
flaming
filled it up with 25ltrs and cranked up the wood
temp upto about 80c
Smokin!! tree in background is covered in a grape vine - - untended by anyone
maximum temp with what wood i had could only reach 95c no boil!!
out the front the barley drying in the sun!
May not be able to use it as a boiler but maybe to start things off as it will meet strike temp for mashing and maybe pre warm up for sparge and boil?? :
