Cast iron pot BTU's needed

[corvette8n]

I picked up a 5-qt cast iron pot over the weekend and was wondering how many btu I need to put under it to melt say 4-qts of WW. I only have a single burner on a propane tank, and I know this pot is too heavy for it. I am thinking about ordering the 170,000 btu burner from Agri-supply.
