I purchased a stage 5 heat exchanger and upon recommendation of the "engineers", I needed only a stage 1. So...........instead of spening 4K for new horizontal bars, I machined mine down to a stage 2. SO I got 200F wort coming in at 10 gallons per minute and city water at 55F-65F at 20 per minute. I added a stage after every brewing week.
Stage 1 (40 plates) 3hrs knock out and 88F wort in FV!
Stage 2 (80 plates) 3hrs knockout and 88F wort in FV!!
Stage 3 (120 plates) 3hrs knockout and 88F wort in FV!!!
WTF???????!!!!!!!
I have to let my wort cool down overnite and add yeast the next day. I know what I am doing is "mavericky" but I have no other choice right now. Help?
