Chiller specially made for cooling wort samples to hydrometer calibration temperature (70F) to insure a correct reading.

  • Extremely handy when brewing beer because you just don't have time to wait for the wort to cool.

  • Installs inline with your water manifold or you can simply connect using the supplied Garden Hose connections.

  • Includes a ball valve on the base of the unit to allow easy dumping/reusing of wort sample (no need to throw away good wort - just add back to the boil kettle when done taking a sample)

  • Also handy for testing the wort's PH if you live in an area with hard water (which is more basic - what you prefer as a brewer is a more acidic mash)

  • Testing PH helps to aid in consistency, but is really not necessary unless you have special water conditions. The ph of your local water will not change much over time - so your
    beers WILL be consistent even if you don't mess around with PH.

  • A necessity for checking the PH of Homebrewed SOFT-DRINKS which is critical for food safety. Cools sample to room temperature in no time.

  • Fits most standard brewers hydrometers.
