Depends where you live. I have a coil that's hooked up to the hose and a coil that sits in the kettle. The coil that's hooked up to the hose sits in an ice bath and is around 20' of 3/8" tubing, the 30' of 3/8" tubing that sits in the kettle. Works really well during the 6-8 months out of the year that it's 90+ degrees here. This is what it looks like: http://i1140.photobucket.com/albums/n572/bkjamin/20120630_194306.jpg
I'm liking that idea. Now you have me thinking about taking apart my 50'er and making a 20' and a 30'. Clever idea.
My 1/4" is OD refrigeration. I live in MO so one day it could be 90 and the next be 70, the weather is crazy all year round!
wesd25 said:So the 3/8" copper I got is a 20' piece and a 10' piece I used a compression fitting to tie the two together and put teflon on the compression fitting. Is there anything I should be worried about with this setup? ie: the brass compression fitting, small amount of teflon showing, etc? Just don't want to contaminate the next batch I brew. Thanks for advice
