In 2009, Blichmann lit the brewing world on fire with our TopTier™ burner, the first made just for home brewing. But never resting, our team of engineers and avid homebrewers reinvented what a burner should be: efficient, fast, and versatile. That new burner was appropriately named the HellFire™.

Waiting for a boil is now a thing of the past. This dual-mode, patent-pending propane burner has twice the power of our previous burner and is unlike anything else on the market. Whether you want efficiency or ultra-blazing heat, this burner is right for you. Plus, with our patent-pending heat shield, you can keep all that extra heat away from your valve and thermometer and channel it directly into your wort.

Key features include:

High-efficiency mode of 80,000 BTU/hr High-power mode of 140,000 BTU/hr Simple operation Quiet and efficient heat transfer Fume-free, heavy-gauge, non-rusting stainless steel frame Patent-pending clip-on heat shield Infinitely adjustable kettle retaining bars compatible with kettles up to 19.75″ in diameter or 25″ with HellFire™ XL Burner Excellent outdoor flame stability (not suitable for indoor use)

There are a number of manufacturers claiming wildly high power outputs. But at Blichmann Engineering, we thoroughly test our products and stand behind the numbers. Measuring the performance of our burners is straightforward: We run a burner for an hour at full power then measure the weight of the propane used. We multiply the weight in pounds by 21.
