I just finished putting together my whirlpool chiller. It is made from about 60ft. of 1/2" ID soft copper. I plan on recirculating the chill water through the coils with a 200glh pond pump. My question is how much salt should I add to the ice water that I am recirculating? I want to chill it down to 60-65 as fast as possible. The water temperature is rising fast out here in Tucson, Arizona. The ice water will be in my 8 gallon pot. Any idea about how much I should use? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Cheers!
