I built this 50 foot double coil immersion wort chiller for about $60. It cost less than most retailers and websites are charging for 20 foot chillers, and is much more efficient and useful. Homebrewers are resourceful. We build most of the equipment we use for brewing our homemade beer, so why not build your own chiller? If you're making the step up to all grain brewing, or you just want to shorten your extract brew days, it's probably time to utilize the wonder that is immersion wort chillers. I hope this tutorial helps, please leave any questions or comments below!
Cheers!
Immersion chillers work by circulating a cooling fluid (usually tap water from a garden hose or faucet) through a copper/stainless steel coil that is placed directly in the hot wort. As the cooling fluid runs through the coil it absorbs and carries away heat until the wort has cooled to the desired temperature.
