Default Question for electricbrewery users

Im currently building my control panel from Kal's design.

Do you know of any way for the HLT to be used as a pre-chiler? Im thinking I could use the water pump to circulate back/forth between an immersion chiller through the HERMS coil in the HLT and reach my pitching temp pretty quickly....just not sure how to get the water into the loop, pump primed, and few air bubbles.

Trying to save the cost of a CFC.

Thanks!
