Hello all. Looking for a glycol chiller.
Decided to spend the $ and not go diy.
As far as i can tell, there are 3 basic models under a grand: ss brewtech 1/5 hp, penguim 1/3 hp, and the icemaster 100 brewbuilt brand available here in the us at morebeer.
Other than prices, what are some pros and cons? I am not really considering the icemaster as the reviews are pretty bad, and i am hoping for low noise.
This is my first glycol chiller. I will be running a cf5 off of it. Want to be able to lager and cold crash.
What are some pitfalls/ issues/ concerns with a glycol chiller? I can see some issues being: drainimg the tank, size of tank, tank overfill, weight, what else?
Thanks all for any input!
