Damn, didn't notice that it said 12L. I would have bought a few. Might message the guy, see if he's still got some.

Looks great! Have been meaning to do something similar for a while now, as it sucks wasting as much water as I do with an immersion chiller. Hadn't thought of an IBC though, so thanks for that. Will need to think of where to house it...

I'm an ex-Kalamunda boy - Gooseberry Hill Primary and Kala Senior High. Still head up to the hills each week to visit my folks, it's a great area. I'm in Bayswater, so only about 10 mins further on from Nev.
