Hi, I've just spent the morning simplifying my AG rig. Gone is the complex array of silicon pipes and SS parts that I feel created flow problems and potential cleaning issues. Instead my pump is now mounted on an old sideboard with a hose coming in with disconnect to change from Kettle to Mash Tun, and a hose going out to either the HLT, Tun or Kettle (My only burner is a Rambo under the kettle).
I now am thinking what is the best way to chill it down at the end.
I have 3 pieces of equipment
1. Immersion Chiller
2. Mashmaster Plate Chiller #1
3. An old jocky box with cold plate
I want it to be quick (to minimise risk of infection) and easy to clean, what would be the best idea?
What would be good would be to have the water going into the Immersion chiller via the cold plate. This would drop the temp of the warm Perth tap water and hopefully cool the beer down quickly in the kettle. I then would not have to use the mash master Chiller which is a bit figity to clean.
But how can I connect these together?
Or is there an even easier way for me to do this? After watching Joe's video it was clear to me that Simplification of my system would lead to improved sanitation and thus a more efficient system.
Cheers,
Carl
