I love brewing in the winter brewed an IPA this morning 44 degrees outside and my tap water is 43 degrees it took my wort from boil to pitching temp of 63 degrees in 9 minutes:rockin:
I hear ya, brother! Weather was brilliant today here so I did two batches, took them both from boiling to 65°F in under 10 minutes with my trusty well water and lowly 50' IC.
Otoh, even in the dead of August I can drop a batch to pitching temps in under 14 minutes. A bedrock well running in the fifties year 'round is a wonderful thing
