This stainless steel single stage counter-current heater exchanger wort chiller uses pre-chilled water either from one of our cold liquor storage tanks, or tap water if cold enough, to knock down the temperature of wort post-boil. This chiller is capable of knocking down even our 15BBL brewing systems in under an hour. (See our dual 2-stage heat exchanger here if one wants to use a mix of tap and pre-chilled water; this is useful where tap water is not cold enough and/or one's cold liquor tank is not large enough.)
As an added benefit, if one uses the next batch's brew water to cool the wort (and transfers it into a waiting brew tank and hot liquor tank), less energy will be required when heating on brew day, saving electricity.
