Ive gone mad with chugger pump - ? herms

I'm looking to buy one of the 6 Litre pots too. Would that decrease shipping further? I'm based in Dublin though so may be more hassle than it's worth.

It's simple enough I have a 60:60:80:6l so 4 Thermo pots, 2 chuggers a double copper coil cooler arrangement and whirlpool.
Have a look in search engine, I've posted quite a few brewdays with it, in Vimeo if you type in ch homebrew and ciderhead homebrew few vids in there as well
New shed coming shortly and I've loads of stainless tables bought so will take pics of proper set up later in year.
6l is for Herms exchange, my brewdays would be a little bit longer using it as HLT

Anyone have any tips where to pick up a small SS coil for these 6L pots?

I have contacted BrewBuilder and Angel Homebrew and both do not have them. BB said they're like hens teeth!

This is the closest coil I have found that I think will fit the pot. It ain't cheap at £72, thats before compression fittings etc etc.

$40 from US, could get caught by customs though

or worth re-bending these?

Too big at 270mm? ~£42

or

5m version, £20 plus Parcel Motel

Was thinking re-bending might be an option but wasn't sure hoe easy/difficult that may be?

That's a very good price $40. I wonder what the tax would come in at? I've heard it can be generally higher than it should be coming from the states.

Cheers, I think I might just bite the bullet and buy something tonight. It seems a lot the shops are out of SS coils though for some reason.

I havent ordered the pots yet.  Will one of these coils fit?

Not sure, that's the problem. I might buy the 12L pot instead. If you haven't ordered them yet then I'm going to drop out of the order if that's ok? I'm hoping to get this going ASAP too, hopefully built by next weekend. Cheers anyway, I'll PM you too.

Do you have a rough Idea of the length of the stainless coil CH?

[Leann ull]

Only coz its you asking

Some clever clogs will work it out? I am guessing maybe 1-1.5metres?
If I was really arsed I could work it out by filling it, draining it and from id working it out, I'm not.

Height of coil




Width of Coil




Depth of Pot





Width of pot

Thanks, so it's around the 2m mark with the straight parts as well.
