Hi.
I have this plat chiller:
Pro Flow Dynamics PC-050-30 - Wort Chiller - 30 Plates | BeverageFactory.com
I used it by gravity only-no pump.
5 gallons of water in the boil.
Water from my faucet is 72 farenheit.
I cranked to water to full flow and had to adjust the wort (just boiling water for this test) way down to hit any reasonble pitching temp at all. Still, at the end of the run, I wound up with 5 gallon bucket of wort at 80 degrees in 25 minutes. I'm not impressed! That would be 50 minutes for my normal 10 gal batches! Tried turning it sideways. Tried turning it straight up. No avail. Is my incoming water too hot or??? Open to suggestions or any kind of reasoning.
Thanks, To All.
