Hey guys,
I've been looking at trying to get a wort chiller to make cooling wort more efficient. So when it comes to a wort chiller, I'm not sure what size to get. At my lhbs here in Newfoundland I can get a 3/8 50' chiller for 98.50.
I've also checked around to some plumbing supply stores and found that I can get a 50' coil of 3/8" for $65 and 1/2" for $85.
I would prefer to build one, but I don't know what would be my best option. I was thinking maybe a 1/2", 50' dual coil chiller? What do you guys think? I'll be getting a 15 gallon pot doing 5 gallon batches for now but may move to 10 gallon occasionally.
