MG Thermal Consulting Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 I have a line of small chillers (less than 2 HP) that can be used for small set-ups. Around 8-10,000 btu/hr with circulator pump. I can send you a picture, if you are interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swede Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 I'm sure the finished product will look fantastic, is there going to be a stainless liner in it, or will you be using just the wood for the vessel Paul? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The wood is the tank....3 bulkhead fittings for the elements, 2" drain also at the screen level for solids to be flushed out....sparging spray nozzles built into the lid. attaching todays pic. paul-csa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mash Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 How many heating and cooling cycles will the wood take before it splits or leaks? Approx? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artisan Still Design Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 as long as its kept wet, should last a good long while, I'd think. considering oak barrels have been used as thump kegs for many a year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
