All,
the in-laws want to get me something homebrew related for about $200 or so and I need some advice! I was originally thinking of getting a counterflow or plate chiller to replace my immersion chiller, but maybe it's a good idea to consider other items as well.
As for my current setup, I make 11 gal batches. I have 2 10gal round coolers generally used for mash tuns, 2 15.5gal converted sanke kegs gernerally used for boil kettles, a single propane burner, a 50' immersion chiller to cool with 80* tap water, and a tiny fountain pump to recirculate ice water when the tap water can't cut it anymore. Everything I do is gravity fed currently. Ideally I want to move to a MoreBeer BrewSculpture or similar setup in a year or two when space permits, but what would be the best bang for my (gift) buck at this stage?
