Great stuff Gash. I got one of those chillers in my Brewzilla 3.0 a few weeks ago and this Sunday I will be using it for the second time. I will look out for the hot steam or water after I submerge in the wort. I can't justify the waste in water and so I recirculate the water through an esky with ice in it. It takes a few bags of ice but I managed to drop the wort to pitching temp in under 30mins.
Since I watched your no chill lager video I gave up chilling. My lagers are still crystal clear and taste the same. Saved me loads of hassle. Nice one Gash.
hey mate, what about having the chiller in a bucket of ice water and running the wort through it? ive seen it done, what is your take on that? Cheer mate, love the vids
Not sure if this is a handy tip but I bought a BrewZilla gen 4 yesterday put the compression fittings on the chiller ,DONT Unscrew them I just slide them onto the pipe till it stopped and got two shifters and didn't up til you here a slit crack and all done didn't leak and they don't move.👍🍺
Great video as always. I just got all these fittings from kegland but am having trouble fitting the female quick disconnect to my hose. Any advice? Thanks heaps!
Love no chill method. Have graduated to a plate chiller which uses a lot less water. Only down side there is having to thoroughly clean the plate chiller out afterwards. I would love to see your take on that Gash. Love your work.
Good stuff! I love my plate chiller, I just flush it with the hose mostly, and then I bake it in the oven the day before use, and thats about it, unless I've had a very messy brew then yeah I'll run some cleaner through it. Cheers!
The Home Brew Network Good policy. Rinse in both directions until it runs clear. The Hop Spider is your friend to keep a certain amount of hop debris out of there to begin with. Bake till you can’t hear any more liquid sloshing around in there.
Enjoying your videos mate. Just got a brand new Brewzilla Gen4. New to all grain brewing so some really helpful tips here. I've ordered some silicone hosing for my chiller and am going to try the other method with pumping the wort through a bucket of ice water and back into the Brewzilla. Hoping this will be more effective as I reckon the method you use here will take forever and use heaps of water, plus all the messing with the fittings as you describe. You got any tips I ahould be aware of for using the other method or any better alternatives to getting the wort to fermentation range?
@@HomeBrewNetwork hey legend - what hose fittings did you use here? I've visited Bunnings but they all have threads too big to fit the 15C compression fitting. Thanks again mate
Wish I watched this the other day when trying to do my chiller with compression fittings! Went at it with 2x snifters and some plumbers tape lol Leak Free!!!!
I ditched the chiller from my Brewzilla. I often do smaller batches and it just doesn't reach far enough down into the kettle which seems like a bit of a design flaw. Sold it for £40 on ebay and brought a brewferm one which reaches the bottom for the same money, and as a bonus the hose fittings are integrated on the brewferm chiller so no need for compression fittings. Top tip to avoid the super heated steam issue, attach the hose before you place it in the wort.
Just had a similar experience, i purchased a herms coil with two compression fittings to fix through the bulk head, everytime i tried to tighten one up it went stiff before it was tight, tried everything with no luck, i got the vernier out and the fitting was widening near the end of the thread, Chinese precision engineering.
I, like a lot of people, made my own immersion chiller. Used 38" copper tubing and attached 2 dishwasher hose couplings (compression fittings). As I'm in Canada don't know if these are available else where. As far as draining chiller I just blow it out with my compressor.
Hi Mate, Could you let me know the size of the copper hose fittings you attach at 6: 33 and where I can buy them ? I went to my local Bunnings and only saw the larger style fittings. Thanks Johann
Hey man! Nice video. I just fixed my chiller coil. I just connected it to a foset and it is okey. No lickage at all. Is it okey if i leave it there untill i brew tommorow ? or should i disconnect it and drain the water ? Thanks from greece
Great beanie! Yep we've all been there, stainless is a bastard! Nylon or copper olives are the way to go. Stainless on stainless is neater, but as you say since nothing is going in the good juice, copper is a whole lot more forgiving. Use of water is simply maths, I've found my copper immersion uses a whole lot less water than the counterflow, and goes into the garden. Yes leave the pump running is a no brainier and works a treat. Clarity = time, brewing is 90% cleaning so personally I end up doing more cleaning while the wort "chills out/ has a little me time"(i.e. cut seen to sitting at the bar testing previous brews) . Awesome channel, uncommon common sense!
hahaha Good stuff Mike, I can do a whole batch in 7mins with my plate chiller, a little bit longer with my counter flow, both with tap water about 1/3 pressure, but the IM Chiller always takes at least 15mins, Im not sure I've ever done it 15 to be honest its usually 20 -30, at the same time its stainless, so not as good as a copper one and its also relatively small compared to some. But hey whatever works! thats for sure! Cheers mate and thanks very much for taking a look. Gavin
where to you get compression fittings and what size? I am surprised that the Brewzilla with all its gadgets leaves you hanging on the incomplete sort chiller. Why do they not supple the wort chiller with fittings ready to hook up?
I just got them from the hardware shop, bunnings, before that I just had garden hose clamped to the chiller. I guess it just leaves it up to you to what you want to do, you dont need fittings. I dont work for them so I dont know why they make the decisions they do. Cheers mate!
I did use a prechiller once, many years ago, I was using it with a counterflow chiller though, my unscheduled brew days never helped with having to get ice, and I dont have a car so that made it hard. ua-cam.com/video/yDjktsj51oU/v-deo.html Cheers!
Hey mate. Love the videos. I have read that you can put the chiller into an esky with ice and recirculate your wort through that and back into the robobrew. Have you ever tried that method?
I never used the connections, just squeezed some silicone tube (from Kegland) over the ends, used an aquatic pump (from Bunnings, $29 bucks or something) to pump some ice water through the chiller. Worts cooled in 30 minutes or less. Ice costs $10 a time though, but saves on water. Reuse water from the chilling for cleaning. Never any problems, even in an Aussie summer
Yeah 30mins is about right, the reason I say its a long time is my plate chiller does it in about 6 or 7mins winter and maybe 15mins summer and use much less water. Takes a little longer cleaning and preparation but thats not done on brew day. My plate chiller on a good day uses about 2 buckets of water, the immersion uses too much to measure, although I still save some and use it, Im not writing them off at all, there is just more efficient ways, but again that comes down to what suits you more, Cheers Nath!
Yeah I know, you’re right. I actually bought a plate chiller about a year ago, only used it a couple of time though. It was always in my head that how did I know that all the funk had come out in cleaning? It’s now just an ornament in my box on unused brewing stuff. I did however, after your video a while ago, buy some no chill cubes from beerco. Loved the process, saved a bunch of time, and thanks to you suggestions re: hop additions, the beer turned out great. Massive fan mate, can’t wait for the next vid. Hoping it’s a g2g, my favourite 🤟
Theres many theories, Im not sure which is the best to be honest, one theory is hot stuff rises and you do it like a counter flow and start by the cold in the top to cool the hottest first, but other theories that the elements are still hot down the bottom so you push the cold to the bottom first. I havent noticed much difference myself, cheers!
I have tried the esky full of ice and pre-chillers etc but the hassle for me of getting ice makes it unfeasible on most brew days, I don't have a car or freezer space etc. Cheers mate!
I noticed, at least in the video, you measured the diameter of the tubing in two different places. For the first one you measured on the end which should be almost round. For the second one you measured where it was bent which usually the bending proccess makes the tubing oval. Perhaps that was the reason for the difference in diameter? Stainless steel is a very hard metal so I'm not surprised that the ferrule didn't want to compress enough to seal. I agree that, in this application, brass and a nylon 'olive' is fine. CHEERS!
Different sizes, thats why it didnt work.. if it was same size it would of worked.. the taking a photo and trying to hold the chiller still and the vernier in place wasn't easy with just two hands lol the one that looks like it was measuring near the bend measured the 12.7mm , half inch, exactly what they are supposed to be, the other one wasn't maybe I'd crushed it with pipe clamps, but its stainless and pretty , nonetheless the original on was smaller and thats why it didnt work, the other was 12.7mm and it worked :) Cheers mate!
I did a brew today and my water temperature is so cold the inlet of the immersion chiller had condensation on it, water temperature is below 10C great time of year to brew, you can cool the wort so fast, no good in summer, my water here is in the mid 20C plus, I hang my immersion chiller upside down to stop water from staying inside it
I had a bit about condensation in the video first edit, but cut it out video was getting a bit long. The trouble I have most of the time here is the water pipes are very shallow, only a very small period of time it works fast-ish even being in Melbourne. Still good when needed mate. Cheers!
I'm finding myself in similar predicament with my compressions fittings not snugging up. My unproven theory is that Kegland and KegKing may sell slightly different diameter chillers? The KegKing chiller seems to be 12mm, and Kegland has 12.7mm (i.e. full 1/2 inch). I have a KegKing chiller, and bought Kegland fittings 'doh!. And on closer inspection on their respective websites, KegKing sell 12mm fittings to suit their chiller, and Kegland the 12.7mm to suit theirs. not sure if this theory lines up with your experience? EITHER THAT, or KK just dropped the decimal for clarity and there just happens to be some random variances in SS tube diameters... making it all pure dumb (bad) luck. I might have to just stick to silicone tubing with hose clamps for now...
Got a new camera, still learning it.. I'm not real comfortable having it over the boil pot yet but for the intro etc will be playing with it, it's usually my mobile phone galaxy s7 lol Cheers Scott
Surely no self respecting tool fitter would use a pair of mole grips to tighten a nut. Sacrelege. My old man would have given me a big tut for that. Joking aside I have run the wort through the chiller stuck in an ice bath the last few times I used my BZ and it worked fine. Only uses about 50l of water some of which can be used for cleaning at the end. It does mix up the wort of course but surely so does the plate chiller. Chilling has always been my least favourite part of brewing and maybe the no chill method is the way to go. Thanks for the advice and tips.
Yes you are right, I have mentioned that in other videos, only the exact right tool for the job, but shuffling things around to be seen on camera its just easier :) Plate chiller is a one run straight from kettle to fermenter so it doesn't stir up the kettle. I can do a whole batch in about 6 or 7 minutes, in middle of summer a bit longer, but just one run usually no recirc. No chill certainly makes for an easier brew day. Cheers Dr. T
Yeah Gash... "Little swearing..." HEHEHE... I can imagine that LOL. Good trick BTW. I had to double coiled my chiller and did the same.. with Bunnings stuff. Cheers!
It would depend on the IPA, but if I'd made the recipe for chilling then there maybe 20min adds or 15 min hop adds and in no chilling they are virtually useless, will just end up all bittering hops and the beer would likely be a bitter mess. Cheers David
The Home Brew Network Thanks mate. That makes sense! Was forced to no chill an IPA batch last week as my pump clogged. Noticed that the aroma wasn’t very evident out of the fermenter so added a little more dry hop to compensate. Taste was ok, but aroma was lacking. Lucky I missed a hop addition, so hopefully not too bitter once conditioned.
