So Ive read through a few threads on here from people wanting to simply drop dry ice in their wort. I have a slightly different idea and need some constructive criticism.
Mix 2 gallons of ethanol with 2 lbs of dry ice. That mixture would rest in a ss kettle that would then be used like a HERMS system almost. You would submerse a copper chiller and then circulate the wort until pitching temp is reached.
Any reason this wouldn't work? Cost isn't a concern too much. Dry ice isn't that expensive and I would imagine that the ethanol could be reused.
Thanks in advance!
