DIY Cannman all week, and now I'm tweaking my chill set up.
2 years ago when I ran my copper immersion chiller at night in winter, the water outflow froze over by morning creating quite the hazardous situation *it was a lot of water!*
So i'm looking to build a recirculating situation which consists of a large rubbermaid container filled with ice water (with ice being replaced as the recirculation melts it) and a 400 GPH fountain pump (Thats 6.67 gallons a minute).
Is this enough flow??
Another option is to run an excessive amount of hoses to the sewer clean-out access.
Thanks!
