I get the point of cooling the wort fast as possible - plan to use an ice bath - but how about gently adding ice to the wort too?
Done a lotta research but can't find any mention of adding ice to the wort so I'm guessing it's not the done thing. However, we have to add water later anyway to top up the fermenter so why not do it as ice in the wort?
If there is no reason not to add ice, can commercially bought ice be used? supposedly it's sterile.
