Convoluted Copper Counter-Flow Wort Chiller

perfect replacement for the evaporator side of a phase change \H2O chip chiller (with a bit O work)

all copper (Insulated after the fact)
excerpt
Why is convoluted copper so much more efficient than straight sided copper?
1) Increased surface area
2) Increased turbulence of BOTH the wort (inside of convoluted tubing) and the chilling water (outside of convoluted tubing)
3)Convoluted copper is made from copper with greater thermal conduction than the copper used in soft refrigeration tubing.

trick units only $99

Now that, is awesome stuff.... and damn cheap too....

Hey #Rotor damm long time no see

everybody left (or where banned) from [H]

except me
during one of my inactive periods

Im still linkin to your chip chiller how to

If you can drop by data storage
Im the mod as of today

I ghost here a bit trying to not fall to far behind on extreme cooling, but have been concentrating on sysadmin, storage management, and security
