Hello everyone,
First off this is my first post and I wanted to thank you all for this amazing resource. I have been browsing in the background for sometime and am finally beginning to take the steps to make our dream a reality and the help here has been so valuable.
Anyways, I haven't seen any post in regards to this particular topic (if I missed it I am sorry, I just briefly looked through to see). I have been researching a more cost effective method to get a glycol system implemented for our jacketed fermenters. The option from pro-chiller would be great but would be rather capital intensive. I found some small chillers that are used to chill beverage lines that could likely be used to cool our tanks (if we got a chiller for each perhaps)! Would these be a viable alternative (http://www.beveragefactory.com/draft...er/index.shtml). Unfortunately, I am unsure of the size that would be required to chill a 7BBL tank.
Thanks,
Andrew
