Product details

Chill your wort like the professionals do! The Northern Brewer Counterflow Wort Chiller utilizes the same technique as your favorite commercial brewery.

The tube-within-a-tube design allows for hot wort to flow through the wort chiller in one direction, while cooling water flows the opposite direction in a cooling jacket surrounding the wort. This efficient design ensures the hot wort is always in contact with a fresh supply of cool water - so no stirring or agitation is required! With a total of 18 feet of pure chilling power, our Counterflow wort chiller will bring wort down to pitching temperatures quickly.

Solidly constructed of 304 grade stainless steel, its durability far surpasses that of similar chillers made of copper or even repurposed automotive hose. Because of its low flow restriction, this chiller can be used with simple gravity or in a pump-driven configuration.

Check out our connection packages to make setting up the chiller even easier!

Pretty good chiller

It’s very pretty - but it doesn’t cool as well as my homemade copper counterflow chiller. You need to run your wort through pretty slowly to get the temp down.

Works Well.

I was looking for something similar to a plate chiller but much less dificult to clean. It seemed no matter what I did to clean a plate chiller it would still be dirty. Now I can just run cleaner through this counter flow chiller and get it easily cleaned. I have no problem getting it to whirlpool while recirculating using a pump as some others have claimed. Just be sure to get a good prime on your pump so that the flow rate is strong. This was a very good buy!

Works as described

Only downside is there is no inline thermometer, it can be added but would be better if it was an all in package.

Counterflow Chiller the best I've seen

Super easy online order, on sale, quick delivery...insane quality.
What else can one ask for, maybe an option for 6 stars? 😀
