Hi, it takes me over a hour to get wort down to pitching temp. I have an immersion chiller in the kettle, also have one in an igloo with is my ice bath that chills the water before it heads into the kettle. The time and water waste is huge. I'm thinking of getting a counter flow heat exchange?
Are these a better way than a plate heat exchange?
And do I have to recirculate the wort through the pump into the heat exchange and back into my kettle? Or... does it work fast enough to go straight from kettle-pump-exchange-fermenter?
Thanks
