Artisan Still Design Posted May 30, 2014 Author Share Posted May 30, 2014 Why? multiple reasons, falls within the same category of why we don't post specifications online either. main reason is Alibaba. there are 16 companies on there using pictures of our equipment, all claiming they build for us.

mendodistilling Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Someone needs to make some affordable cooling towers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MG Thermal Consulting Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Mendo...there is a big range of cooling tower prices out there, too (features and "agency" capacity ratings have something to do with it. I personally prefer "dry" coolers, you can get the benefit of cold weather cooler without worry about freeze-up as well as easier switchover to using a chiller in summer hot months. Water treatment is another cost issue that many just prefer to overlook and "turn-off"- I've seen untreated water cut through a steel reservoir and the sides of a galvanized tank in less than 10 years. If it's low cost you want, the fiberglass variety are least expensive, but many need to be assembled, "tied" down and have drain issues as well. I can get you a price on a fiberglass unit, but you would be happier in the long run with a drycooler, I am pretty sure. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bier Distillery Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 How does this compare to a comparable in price (whatever that is) plate chiller? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MG Thermal Consulting Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 Like a shell and tube exchanger the heat transfer depends on flow across the surface (like a Mueller falling film exchanger). The distance between the plates would be extremely important to keep the flow moving properly. I would think it is a matter who is doing the application design.

Artisan Still Design Posted June 1, 2014 Author Share Posted June 1, 2014 that right, its all about surface area, however crossection is important for a thicker mash. a cleared wort would be better off with a plate chiller, a full grain in bourbon mash would be better served with a tube in shell cooler.
