Hey everyone I was thinking, the other day that the air that comes out of my air compressor is pretty cold, due to the gas expansion and thermal properties and all. What if I hooked the compressor up to my immersion chiller and blasted the freezing cold air through the chiller to cool the metal and thus cool the beer? Anyone have any experience rigging something like this up?
The thermodynamic properties of air make it a less efficent conductor of heat than water. But the air sometimes comes out of the compressor at very cold temperatures, sometimes below freezing. Perhaps if I tried it out with a longer section of copper pipe. Also are there any dangers I need to worry about such as hot air blowing out through the outlet tube?
