Over the years, I've used a few different types of chillers. Most recently I was using a 20 plate chiller, which worked fantastic, but there were things about it I didn't like. So, I sold it and decided to go back to a copper IC... and so began my search for the most badass product I could find. Via eBay, I landed on the website for JaDeD Brewing. They have more chiller designs than I thought existed, with many having been tested and compared. Some even have videos for proof, and they are convincing (see bottom of post)! The one I'm most interested in is the Hydra, which can reportedly chill 5 gallons of boiling wort to 67F in 3 minutes (using 58F groundwater, which I've got). I'm interested if anyone out there has used any of these neat looking products?
I'd also like to throw out there how rad their customer service is. I'm not even sure of real names, but the dude I've been emailing with is super responsive, clearly passionate, and incredibly informative. For example, in the years I used an IC, I never new that increased flow rate actually chilled the wort faster... I know, it's logical, but I'm dumb. Anyway, I certainly plan on purchasing from JaDeD Brewing, after which I'll do some tests and post a detailed review. At this point, I'm more than pleased with just their customer service.
Cheers!
