Re: Homebrewers - Whats in the fermeter?
On Saturday I brewed a 10.5 gal batch of a Sierra Nevada Pale Ale clone. I decided to brew this because I had all the ingredients on hand. This was my first batch using my new plate chiller. Overall I am pleased with the performance of the plate chiller. I was able pump 10.5 gallons near boiling into 2 - 6 gallon Better Bottles at 75 degrees in about 10 minutes. I have the option to use a submersible pump in ice water which would have lowered the temp considerably but I would gone through a lot of ice and water. For my next brewday I will likely have a prechiller upstream of the plate chiller.
