Crash Chill CO2 method

[Patrick_BCB]

After having the second last beer I kegged suck up about 350 mls of festy blow off water when crash chilling, I decided to have a think about how I can crash chill without oxygen or shitty blow off water contamination.

So I present the 'Gas Bag'

A freezer bag threaded through the silicon bung for a SS Brew Bucket, then filled with CO2 and inserted such that when the lot shrank though CC'ing it sucked in the CO2 rather than any other shit.

Works a treat.

Haha, that's pretty cool thinking. It can be avoided all together if you pressure ferment.
Not with that fermenter though. But good thinking.
