The reason I ask is because I think I have "built a better mousetrap". I have looked at the standard design IC and I thought that I could do one better. What I ended up with is what I call the Rib-Cage Immersion Chiller. Like in the title of the thread I used 22' of 3/8" copper tubing and of that 22' I have 20' used in the coils.
So, how long should a normal 20-25' 3/8" IC take to bring boiling wort to 70*? Since I don't have a standard one, I have no way to pit my results against control data.
