I plan to put the evap in a cooler filled with ~50% antifreeze/ 50% distilled alcohol. The mixture should get down to about -30 deg. C. Then you pump this through a normal WC setup.
I was looking at an Iwaki WMD30RLT, because it was made to pump chemicals. I chose the 30 because the antifreeze really kills flow rates.
I have also heard that the Danner Mag 3/5/7 are good for this sort of thing, but does anyone here have a recommendation?

8000 BTU is a little large, but the only thing it'll hurt is your energy bill I guess.
