my up and running boiler


Recommended Posts

for a few weeks now Ive been doing a spot of crayfish catching, using old bike wheels turned into drop nets, were normally bring home in excess of 200 crays, and boiling them on the cooker takes time, the last 100 took well over 3 hours, so I set out to put together an outside boiling unit like they do in the states

nearly everything was purchased from e bay

 

a 3/4 full propagne bottle and regulator £15

a cast iron gas burner £21

large king kooker (from usa) £60

gas pipe (camping store) £9

 

 

so just over hundred pounds and Ive got a great set up, the test run boiled water in around 25 minutes, then 5 minutes to boil 24 crayfish, looks like it'll be plain sailing from now on
