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!

Yea, it chills wort...

It chills wort, but not that quickly. The best part about this wort chiller is it's virtually impossible to clog.

Gift for my husband

My husband has been brewing for 20+ years, and it was time to replace some of his equipment. The wort chiller he had been using only brought him grief, and he complained about it every time he brewed. He loves his new Stainless Counterflow Wort Chiller. It's easy to clean and works like a champ! He's happy, so I'm happy.

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!
