Hey guys
If all goes well I might be lucky enough to score an old (but still in great nick) plate chiller form a building demo.
My question is, can this bit of equipment work in two ways:
Budget: Immerse the plate in ice water, hook up to garden hose and pump tap water through it and then through my immersion chiller so the water is chilled before cooling the wort?
Not Budget: Buy a food grade pump and circulate the wort from the kettle through the chiller plate and then into the fermenter (Or back into the kettle?)
Any tips would be appreciated, lads!
Cheers
Chris
