IC upgrade advice?

Post by Monkeybrew » Mon Feb 09, 2015 11:58 am

I've been using a fairly standard (small) Brupaks copper immersion chiller for a couple of years, and find it quite slow to chill my 23L batches of wort down, which frustrates me enough to want something bigger.

Has anyone got any experience or views on one of these?

I've done my last few brews no chill. Shortens the brew day. It may be worth a shot to see if you can brew most or all of your beers this way. Brew length to fill the container is 29L. If you don't like it, you've only have spent £6.90 and can use it for some other purpose.
I brew therefore I ... I .... forget
