Yes sir!:ban:

Hey Mugsfull, Thank you for your purchase! Or course, please let us know if you have any questions about your new chiller when you get it and use it. Based on your signature, it would appear that you are in the Dallas area, if that is still the case, we have some recommendations for...

We would recommend getting a 20" Hydra for your kettle. the 0.1" of clearance for the King Cobra is a little too close and you will end up scratching the heck out of both your chiller and kettle. You will have one or two coils that stick out of the wort, but this will not adversely affect your...

We are still here! While we definitely care about answering emails, our main focus is always on getting our customer's orders out (we make every chiller we sell, not resell them from China :ban:). If we notice that someone has ordered and has unanswered questions, we will make sure a response is...

The Hornet has been replaced by the Mantis. Here is a link to our HBT post in the vendor showcase announcing the release of the Mantis. The Wasp has been removed for a redesign. We have a few other projects that are in front of the Wasp redesign, but keep checking the our website!

Here at JaDeD Brewing, we have seen some discussion lately about which wort chiller type is the best for homebrewers, so we are issuing a challenge to any homebrewer that does not NOT use a Hydra or a King Cobra immersion chiller to chill their wort. Here's the challenge: Purchase a JaDeD Hydra...

Hey Guys, We have posted this before, but thought it might be worth it again as it could be helpful in your situations, JaDeD's Extract Chilling Table. Happy Brewing!

Hey Helloworld, Thank you for your purchase! Although we have an automated order confirmation system, we know that no system is perfect! After your order is placed with us, you should have received an order confirmation e-mail. If any of our customers do not receive a confirmation e-mail...

Sorry to hear that you feel disappointed in your Hydra purchase. The main issue is your high ground water temps and, as with every type of chiller, the Hydra can not chill wort below the temperature of the cooling water. The best solution is going to be a pump similar to this one used with...

That is incorrect. You also need to consider the water flow rate of the chiller and the water volume to surface area of a chiller. The lower the water/surface area ratio, the more efficient the chiller will be. Below is an example: 1/2" (25') 5.5 minutes to chill to 10 degrees above tap...

Maybe we are missing something, but we are not seeing where the data is showing 30 additional gallons of water used by the Hydra. Could you please point out where you are seeing this? The cleaning for both the Hydra and the stainless chiller are going to be the same. Any hops or break...

First off, thanks for purchasing one of our products! Since we don't know exactly what your system is, we will tell you this: Using a pump for wort recirculation will result in approximately 50% longer chill time compared to agitating/stirring the wort. Also, the Wasp will get 5 gallons to 10...

All of the following articles are referring to dry copper surface contact. "Bacteria, yeasts, and viruses are rapidly killed on metallic copper surfaces, and the term “contact killing” has been coined for this process. While the phenomenon was already known in ancient times, it is currently...

Make sure you are utilizing the full potential of your wort chiller by following the recommendations on our "Immersion Wort Chiller Optimization" page. Also, you might have a stainless IC as there are no commercial manufactures of aluminum ICs that we are currently aware of. Another thing...

Try using your chiller following our "immersion wort chiller optimization" guidelines, you should see a sizable decrease in your chilling times. We have a rather thorough rundown of the benefits of chilling here. With tap water that cold, you have no need for a pre-chiller and it might...

Hey guys, We have been working on getting some comparisons of various chillers together and this is what we have so far: The JaDeD Difference We obviously have more to add, and will do so as time permits. We have verified the results multiple times under controlled conditions to eliminate...

What you are seeing is the difference between laminar and turbulent flow on the wort side. It also looks like there could be more chilling power to gain by a faster flow rate as you have not topped out the flow rate vs wort temp in your chart. For the best results, you should be using either a...

Since speed is your main goal with your chiller, the two fastest chilling options that you have are the Hydra immersion chiller and the Therminator/B3-36A 20 plate chiller. The following is a brief description of pros and cons for each type: The Hydra Immersion Wort Chiller: Pros: -...

We have done extensive research and testing in this area and we have a few insights that might come in helpful for you. 1) The wort flow rate. When using 3/8” tubing your chilling times are going to be limited by this. For our JaDeD CFC (which uses 3/8” inner tubing), the maximum flow...

If you are looking to reduce your ice usage as well as decrease your chilling times, you should use a garden hose spigot for your chill water until you are 10 to 20 degrees above your tap water temp. Then switch to ice water. This is the most important part: DO NOT RECIRCULATE THE ICE...
