Appears to be your "typical" overclocker's dream come true solution to chill your computer processor down to -100 degrees.
Yeah, I wish I knew more. All I can say is in that picture you have freon running one side through a plate chiller. Way too much heat load for running boiling hot wort on the reverse direction, but I know there is glycol application that could be served well for anyone intelligent enough to engineer together something like this.

Its just a condensing unit hooked to a flooded coil (the chiller), I thought they would use a capillary tube like whats in a freezer compared to an expansion valve.
Ive thought about running co2 through a chiller to see what temps it would get down to. (please dont do this inside)
