I then run mains water through my immersion chiller to keep recirc water at about 25 degrees. Cooling my cooling water with other water. Sounds stupid I know but it gives me consistent flow and consistent temperature. It's nothing flash, just utilising my beer brewing gear :handgestures-thumbupleft:
Im using a pond pump and IBC, last nights run was all over the shop, water is getting too cold, after a 4hr run the water was 5'. Trying to get the water right to the RC was a PITA, figure a flow meter will give me a better idea of where it needs to be at different times of year, plus I get to add some more bits to the still. :think:
