Hi,
I have been reading up on the no-chill method and was thinking I would like to give it a go, I have an empty 15L wort pack that i was going to fill up when i do my next brew.
I was wondering how you guys go about getting the boiling/near-boiling wort into the no chill cube safely.
I was thinking that siphoning it would be the safest approach, using some kind of high heat tolerant tubing (ala neoprene tubing tho it's quite expensive).
I've only ever started siphoning liquids from a fermenter and usually i just pre fill the tube with sterilised water to get the suction going, I assume doing this with boiling liquid is probably a bad idea as even if i start the siphoning with cool water at some point the tube will heat up to nearly the temp of the wort.
Would love some advice on the matter.
Thanks,
Dave
