so i just moved a few months ago and i just brewed my first batch at the new house. wow, cooling the wort took forever. my tap water at my old house came out around 55* the tap water at my new house is in the upper 70s.
would there be a negative effect to the beer if i ran liquid co2 through the chiller to drop my temp.
the real question i am asking is if some of the beer were to freeze to the chiller then melt off, would this have a bad effect on the beer.
co2 costs me almost nothing so i am not worried about the price, just interested in an experiment.
i guess i'll actually look into circulating ice cold water with a pump if this doesnt work out.
