Hi All,
I have searched multiple forums for a solution to my quandary, but haven't had much luck.
I have a very limited space available for my brewing activities and therefore can't have a fermenting freezer/fridge.
Conveniently, where my setup is located is at the back of a very large garage, in a house made from cast concrete. It tends to stay between 14 & 18 degrees year round.
What I don't have the ability to do is cold-crash my beer.
I am hoping to find an existing 304/316 stainless steel coil which can fit inside a Fermentasaurus, or locate a manufacturer in WA (or failing that, all of Aus) who might be able to provide one.
The plan is to submerge a heat exchanger inside a 50L ice box and circulate a glycol solution through the coil within the fermenter, ultimately this is the most "future-proof" method, as it's expandable in the future.
I've read about other solutions, such as the "Cool Zone" jacket, but everything I can find suggests that cold crashing isn't possible with it.
If anybody has any recommendations, please let me know.
