The logic is sound but I don't understand why you couldn't just give the wort a good swirl every 30 seconds or so...
That was a good issue

I was going to post something about Jamil's design. It's interesting, but then again, I was able to cool my last wort down to under 75 in just about ten minutes using my uber-ghetto chiller. I did, however, stir pretty constantly (unfortunately without thinking too much about HSA, but I was pretty careful regardless).

That looks like pretty much the same article... definitely the same photos.
