So I dropped by an artist friend's studio located in a scrapyard and got a nice tour. I found 4 pallets of of counterflow chillers, one of which I think will be great for my future brew rig. The owner wast there so I couldnt get a price on any of those.
From the tags I saw most of these chillers were discarded due to cosmetic defects, others are obviously NFG. Also a lot are probably way to huge for use on my scale of brewing. Any reason why I shouldnt feel confident I could pressure test and clean one or more of these?
What other uses are there for CCs besides chilling wort? Should I grab multiples or different styles?
Also on the lot were three pallets of various triclover bits and pieces.
I found two Ts that should be a good jump start on making a RIMs tube.
Most of what I saw on the top looked like 2" though I did see at least a few burried 1.5" bits and pieces that I want to dig out later.
Any reason why I wouldnt be able to clean these up?
Any reccomendations on what other 2" pieces might be useful?
