Fifty Shades of Gray is cheap.
You want colour? You Pay.

Last occasion I had to price 5m3 delivered I quickly decided I didn't require it after all.
Around $1200 from memory...Just FWIW.

I'm sure someone would organise shipping to NZ, at cost

Nice chiller Mash, glad you are happy with it.,if you weren't then that much copper is an investment anyway.

Nice bit of copper, by the way.....

Meh! Looks like standard 20mm gravel marine agg' - about £40 a tonne - cheaper if bought in bulk............

Dunno why it'd be expensive packapoo, it's just dredged, off loaded, graded and bagged or bulk delivered.........

All done.

Great fun soldering it up. I had forgotten how nice working with copper pipe is.

Today is wash / test run day in some boiling water. Is it worth adding a good dollop of vinegar?

Thanks chaps.

Mine will seem very similar. I opted for twin coil, mainly 'cos I had some 10mm and many of the retail one seem a bit poor.

Would you run the Braumeister pump to agitate?

Bring the cold water in at the top, that way the cooler wort will drop causing a convection flow. If you bring it in at the bottom the cooler wort will remain at the bottom.
