i am brewing a 2 40 gallon batches stagered. The first day I will brew 40 gallons.
I am going to use a XL Immersion chiller the 50' ft one.
This is the part I wanted to run by everyone. I am using https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f51/2-54-barrel-s-s-conical-fermenter-build-135991/
this for the first time (i have a commercial pressure washer to clean the first time) and I think the best way to clean it the final time is to use the hot water coming out of the Immersion chiller to clean for the last time prior to pitching.
I do not have a pump so I am going to use 5 gallon bucks and carry them up the ladder. This shouldnt be a problem right?
Once I have the wort in, I will us my 02 tank to get some 02 back into it. By now the once hot fermenter should have cooled from the wort temp.
Then pitch 5 gallons of yeast.
Next day brew next batch and pitch the other 40 gallons of wort.
Does anyone see any problems with this method?
I want to make insure no little bugs gets a hold of 80 gallons.
