I recently bought a solar pump and thought it would make a good chiller by essentially filling up my cool box with lots of ice and water and then after boiling, running the wort through 10m+ of silicone tubing with the intent that it comes out of the other side at fermenting temperature.
With 10m of tubing each millilitre of wort would be in contact with ice cold water for 1 minute (pump = 7 litres/minute, 10m tubing = 7.1m3), would this be long enough?
