Most home brewers are not even pressurized. The best chance for a decent explosion is with methanol, which goes up a lot like gasoline.
Our chemical reactions are too wimpy for decent explosions. I'm trying to think of the best way to explode a back yard operation. If you don't have a match, or a stick of dynamite, perhaps a metal mixing blade under high RPMs against a metal drum above the methanol?
