I saw the design for this a while back and thought it would be a good beginner project to allow me to brew in the summer (NC is already 80). The design is great and clearly works, but I wanted something a little thinner that wouldn't have as big of a footprint, and I wanted something sturdier to last as long as possible.
I moved the fans and cooling chamber to the top, assuming that cold air falls and should push the warm air towards the top of the chamber, allowing it to get exchanged more efficiently.
The second is obvious, i put the entire chiller in a wooden box. I wired it up to a basic mechanical thermostat, and put the thermostat in the furthest corner from the cold air inlet.
Let me know what you think! :rockin:
