So I plan on building a chiller. I have a choice between doing a longer 50 foot 3/8 or a shorter 25 foot1/2". Both about the same price.

I "built" my first immersion chiller yesterday using 25ft of 1/2in OD tubing. I was happy with the trial run, it cooled 5 gallons of boiling water to 80 degrees in 10 minutes using 53 degree hose water. The only issue was I struggled making clean bends with a spring bender and it came out way uglier than I planned. Maybe someone else can speak to working with 3/8in vs. 1/2in diameter tubing. Or maybe I just have weak hands?
