    CFC question: size of outer hose x efficiency

The more cold water you have surrounding the tube with wort the longer the water can stay cool. 5/8" would be better than 1/2" and 1" will be even better.

    Bar doodle to come true

    That is exactly what i was thinking. I am not certain how i will mount the leds into the side of the plexi yet. Maybe i need to frame it to cover the leds. I will have the logo done at work or by a friend that has a CNC class at school. We have an in shop CNC so i can whip it up in no time. The...
