I've been no chilling for a while but as summer arrives it's becoming harder to get the wort down to pitching temp in a resonable time.
I've been putting the hot wort in a cube and placing it on the first step of the pool. While the pool was very cold it didn't take much time to get the temp down. Now that summer is on it's way it's takes considerably longer.
So I've been thinking I'll make a Wort Chiller Coil.
My question is how long should it be (meters) and how much water does it use to chill your wort to pitching temps?
I know it depends on the temp of the house water but roughly. SWMBO will not be happy if I flood the backyard each time I brew.
(p.s. I tried the search function but came up cold)
