Hi all, I'm new to brewing and I'm just about to make an immersion coil to chill wort.
As I understand, the normal method is to run cold water through the coil as it's sitting in the hot-wort kettle.
I've thought of an alternative way. You could recirculate the hot wort through the coil, and have the coil in a separate kettle of iced water.
Has anyone done this before?
Is it likely to cool the wort quicker?
