Scored a free DBM-250 chiller last night! The reservoir apparently has a really slow leak. I'm told it's a "Put a paper towel under it" type thing. The reservoir is plastic with a titanium coil inside. So it shouldn't be hard at all to fix. In its past life it was used in a hydroponic system for a well known seed breeder. The kind of place where something like a small drip means you buy a new one.

Now I need to figure out something to do with it! The repair should be cake.

I'm thinking Sanke reservoir feeding jacketed fermenter(s) and maybe resurrecting the airplane engine tap system in the new bar..
