I recently got a wort chiller and will be using it for the first time this week. Does it need to be sanitized or is putting it in the boiling wort going to take care of any bacteria that might be on it?
I am presuming this is an immersion chiller?
Most folks place in the BK for the last 15 min of the boil.
Make sure that the hose connections are made BEFORE you put the chiller in the boiling wort. Any water in the IC from a previous brew gets hot fast and "spits" out. (Not that I've ever had it happen to me...more than twice...)
