I made this one on Sunday 1/2"x50' type M ridged copper for the uprights with soldered on male and female hose ends .

THAT is sexy...


Thanks!

I brew 20 gallon batches. That's 2 X 50' coils of 1/2" copper. The water flow splits between them and then collects again for a single effluent. There are temperature sensors in both the in and the out. It works amazingly well. Of course, I bought the copper at the height of the market from Homer Depot because I was impatient. You could build it for about $100 less right now. :(
