Hi all.
I'm useing a pretty standard looking helix shaped counterflow chiller and it works great. The problem with it is that it takes up a lot of vertical space, meaning that my kettle is very high and slightly impractical because of that. Has anyone made a flat spiral shaped cfc? It would make things easier for me if I could reshape my current cfc as such. Would there be any issues with fully draining the wort from it because of the lower gradient?
