Hey all, I've gone the route of homemade IC before with 25' of copper coil and it works 'ok' but I'm looking to upgrade to one of the 50' 1/2" chillers from morebeer, and I want to go with the whirlpool option. I do 5 and 10 gallon batches in a 15gal boilermaker kettle so the size of their big chillers is not a problem.
I'm just wondering if anyone can find a tangible difference in the normal one WC45 (http://morebeer.com/view_product/89...vy_Duty_Kettles_50_x_1_2"_with_Brass_Fittings) and the one labelled '5/10 split' WC 50 (http://morebeer.com/view_product/19523/102204/Wort_Chiller_-_SuperChiller_-_The_5_10_Split). I am just not seeing what difference it makes to have the little interruption in the middle of the coil, unless there is some sort of diverter to bypass the top half of the coil for smaller batches.
Can anyone else make sense of this?
Thanks
