I am planning on slowly upgrading my brewing rig. The next step is to add a pump so I can more easily chill my beer and whirlpool - for both leaving trub behind and more easily adding whirlpool hops.
If I remember correctly, my CFC copper tubing is 3/8" OD and 1/4" ID:
I am assuming that it is fine to use 1/2" ID hose going to the inlet of the chiller, but I would think you would want to go with an ID smaller than 1/2" at the outlet of the chiller.
Is 3/8" ID silicone tubing the best bet from the outlet of the CFC to the whirlpool inlet?
I am planning on using the SS Brewtech fitting for this (https://www.morebeer.com/products/ss-brewtech-whirlpool-fitting-12-mpt.html)
Thanks!
