So I am fairly new to homebrewing. I have been reading that the best way to chill wort is to chill it all as quickly as possible to pitching temps. Currently I am looking to buy a chiller and am trying to do research on the various types. From what i gather chilling as fast as possible is best acheived with the use of a immersion chiller since you are chilling all the wort at one time. Whereas, chilling with a CFC or plate is chilling very quickly but it leaves a lot of your wort at near boiling temps ~200* or so for a small amount of time. Does anyone have some links to various articles that explain the best methods? All I can seem to find is what the homebrew stores have to say. I already own a March 815 pump and I am looking at getting either a recirculating immersion chiller like morebeer's or JaDeD's hydra with whirlpool attachment, unless you all can convince me that a CFC style is better. I do not want to put in a whirlpool port because I do BIAB. Any input from those that have multiple types of chillers would be great. Has anyone noticed better flavor with a certain type of chiller or are the flavor and method not related? Thanks all.
