Product Description

By entering your model number, you can make sure that this fits.

FAST CLEAN UP - EASY TO USE. The Maxx can be used with a brewer that has a pump, one that doesn't have one, or one that uses warm chilling water.

Copper, PEX, stainless collars, lead-free solder, and lead-free brass fittings are all FDA compliant. Unlike garden hoses with so-called adjustable nut and ferrule fittings, the Exchilerator is expertly soldered the entire length of the fittings, leaving no room for infections to hide! (see cross-sectional photo)

The Maxx comes standard with a temperature gauge, 1/2" stainless steel tee, 1/2" stainless steel close nipple, 1/2" stainless steel ball valve, brass garden hose adapters, and a roll of Teflon tape. (parts included are shown in the photo)

Questions & Answers

What is the diameter of the copper tubing in the chiller? We use 200 gallon mashes and require a flow rate of at least 5 gallons per minute. ?

Even if you use 33-degree water for cooling, I believe it will be difficult. I'm no expert, but the 1/2 inch stainless will not allow enough cool water to pass through the coil to achieve a cool rate of 5 gallons per minute. It may be time to invest in a commercial plate chiller, given the size of your mash. Brewmation is a cool site to check out.

I live in Florida, and the coldest my faucet water gets is around 77 degrees. Do you have any recommendations?

You can recirculate back to the kettle until it reaches 140°F or lower, then transfer to the fermenter, but without a way to cool your chilling water, you'll only get to 85°F. If you have an older immersion, put it in ice water and run your chilling water (prechill) before going to the Exchilerator. Even if you prechill, I would still recirculate. Prior to going to the fermenter, reduce the temperature to 140 degrees Fahrenheit. For your other question, try searching for Exchilerator's HangOver in your browser; it might be what you're looking for to recirculate. return to your water heater I'm afraid I won't be able to provide you with a direct link because Amazon won't let me.

How big is the inner copper tubing's inside diameter? I need about 60 liters of water to cool. ?

1/4" ID. The most important thing to remember is that your cooling water is significantly cooler than your pitching temperature. If you're interested in purchasing something used but in excellent condition, please let me know.

The cooling water appears to flow from top to bottom, while the wort appears to flow from bottom to top (as seen on YouTube). Is that what you mean?

Yes, it doesn't matter whether you're on top or at the bottom, as long as the cooling water is flowing in the opposite direction of the hot water.br>Stay excited.

It's a high-quality product that's well-made

5/5

What a feat! After a 15-year hiatus, a resurrected brewer. I used an immersion style cooler to cool down my 10 gallon of hot wort back then, and it worked quite well. I live in the Pacific Northwest, where our groundwater is about 50 degrees. I haven't tried the Exchilerator yet because I'm still cleaning and inspecting my entire boil setup. I have high hopes for this beast!br>br>I am working with the company on a minor issue with the dial therm, which is not accurate even after cold and hot calibration. (Email to customer service was sent today, March 15th. ) I have not received a response yet. I'll update you when I have more information. Keep an eye out for updates. Update. br>br> I received a new dial thermometer, which works perfectly. Oh, almost forgot to mention that the thermometer was sent free of charge via priority mail! Thank you very much!.

The chiller is fantastic! When I came across this, I was trying to decide between a plate chiller and a counterflow

5/5

I decided to give it a shot, and I'm glad I did! Using 50° ground water, I was able to chill a 5 gallon batch from 212° to 65° in 3 minutes and 25 seconds. During the last ten minutes of boiling, I sanitize by pumping hot wort through the coil. I just flush it with clean water after chilling, and it's ready to use again. I highly recommend this chiller!.

Quick cooling! I wish I had purchased this sooner rather than later and abandoned my immersion chiller

5/5

The first time I tried it, the wort went in at 190 degrees and came out at 70 degrees. The chiller functioned flawlessly, but I had trouble using it as a gravity system. Because the flow was so slow, it took nearly as long to reach my yeast pitching temperature as it did with an immersion, so that's my fault; I need better draw or I may have to resort to using a pump.

This is a fantastic chiller that is both efficient and effective

5/5

This is a fantastic chiller. This is by far the best chiller I've ever used; I brew 5 and 10 gallon batches and had to get a nozzle to throttle my hose water because it chills so quickly.

The chiller is incredible

5/5

I used to cool 15 gallons of wort in. The chiller is incredible. In 45 minutes, I was able to cool 15 gallons of wort. To save water, I installed an enclosed prechiller system. It used to take me almost three hours to cool 15 gallons of wort before I bought the exchilarator. It's a great buy at a reasonable price, especially for the homebrewer.

Unbelievable product: I cooled boiling wort to 62 degrees Fahrenheit after it was removed from the heat

5/5

I thought it wasn't working because the temperature in the garage was also 62 degrees, so I cooled the boiling wort to 62 degrees. I was under the impression that the gauge was broken. Brew day is significantly sped up. You will not be dissatisfied with this purchase.
