Hey guys,
I've been thinking about this for a little while, and reading another topic on immersion chilling not chilling to pitch temp unless using large amounts of cold water and/or ice cooled water I was thinking about combing the two methods?
I know that cooling to 40-50C is quite quick using tap water.
I've read numerous reports that hops aromas are locked in at a higher temp than that (80C ?)
What if I immersion chilled to 40C, then chucked the lot into a sterilized cube and left over night to get to the right temp, is this a water and hops aroma saving method perhaps?
Thoughts?
Cheers
Martin
PS. I intend on testing this out, I just have to get to bunnings to get a length of copper to make a flying spaghetti monster chiller
