Is that right? I thought most people put the chiller into the boiler?Cools wort down to yeast pitching temperature from boiling point in a matter of minutes. This unit fits into a standard 5 gallon fermentation bin. The forced cooling also has the further advantage of producing a "cold break" where more protein is precipitated leading to a cleaner taste in the finished beer. Please note it is important to have run off the wort via a BRUPAKS HOP STRAINER before using this wort chiller otherwise you will put all the proteins, coagulated during the "hot break", back into solution.
