Hey Everyone,
I've got an eBIAB system that I'm doing 2.5-3 gallon batches on, and I need a chilling solution. Now, I had my heart set on something from JaDed Brewing, but after talking with them and considering my kettle dimensions/available space, they were very honest and advised me that anything they could customize just wouldn't provide results satisfactory for their price point.
So, that leaves CFCs and plate chillers. I'm not a fan of plate chillers at all, so let's not even consider those. As for CFCs, what's everyone here recommend? Only CFC I'm familiar with is the Exchillerator. What kind of chilling times could I expect on 3 gallons with my Orlando, FL ground water (~80*). I'm mostly interested in getting the entire batch temperature down as quickly as an immersion chiller would.
Thanks for the help!
