Hello fellow homebrewers,

I am currently running a STASIS glycol chiller through the SPIKE brewing temp coil. I have never had issues before.

After setting it to 42F last night, I came to find this morning that the return glycol tube coming from the coil was not flowing, it was empty. I've switched pumps on the Stasis and found that the pumps are fine, but there is a week flow of glycol solution coming out of the coil. I use the recommended 2pts glycol to 1pt water and have never had issues. Also, the Stasis can only go down to 36 so I highly doubt there is freezing issues.

Anyone have similar issues before and know how to troubleshoot?

Thanks
