Here a few photo's of the new plate chiller I finally got around to building the fittings for. Its been running static and will get built stationary into my rig later this year. Found this one for sale back east and I had been looking for a large size. Its 22 inch's long 5 wide and 5 thick. Has been working very well and no problems cleaning. Just a back flush and PBW every brew or two or when I remember. I can monitor temp on output and has a aeration stone at output. Tri's are easy to remove for cleaning and don't leak.
God Bless

Swagman that is gorgeous! That would make me want to go plate! I have always been a little scared of them-- but seeing one that big just seems right.

Can your old ass even pick that thing up?
Just teasing. Sweet as usual the stuff coming out of the shed.
