Hey all-
I've been slowly gathering parts for my rig build....today I needed to make it so that my high temp hoses with qd's would fit on my Chillus Convolutus.
Here's what it looks like at MoreBeer, selling for $155:
Not to be confused with the ChillZilla CFC, selling at NB for $190:
See the difference with the fittings? I guess the designers of both figured it would be easy to just slip a hose over the wort in/out. In truth, it is, but I use quick disconnects with silicone tubing....so I needed a quick and easy way to use the chiller. They're both pretty much the same chiller, but I think I prefer the B3 version because all fittings are facing forward. This makes for a better interface if you have it on a shelf on your rig and are taking hoses on/off with qd's. Plus it's cheaper
