I understand the theory behind immersion chiller output, but I can't wrap my head around, nor find any info as to what the ideal output for a steam condenser should be during the boil to confirm it's being used optimally. There are times when it's lukewarm to the touch, and others when I can't touch it at all and steam is actually coming out of the output hose along with the water.
Is it the same as in immersion chiller: too cold and the boil isn't intense enough and too hot the boil is too intense? What is optimal?
