I was looking up wort chillers, and figured I'd rather pay $52 for 50' of copper tubing on ebay than $80 for a 25' chiller on any number of homebrew sites.
Just got my tubing, I already have a fixture to hook it up to a hose. Now all I have to do is clean it up and bend it into shape I guess. Anybody have any opinions on the best methods / shapes? I was thinking a coiled spring like thing, but then I thought having some sort of figure 8 setup might be better since sections of the tubing would be crossing the wort.
Whatchoo guys think?
PS: Pics coming soon
