Planning a electric brewery, (2) 5500 watt elements (not on at the same time) (2) pots. I do 5 gallons brews with 10 gallon pots.
My question is about fans. I can get a 250 cfm 6 inch in line fan or a 500 cfm 8 inch inline fan pretty cheap at home depot for about $50. Or I can get a VTX600 Vortex 497 CFM Powerfan, 6 Inch for about $165. I figure I only need about 300 cfm so would the 250 cfm be too cheap and not enough power or would I be happier paying more money for the vortex?
