In the video below, Siciliano's staffer Greg 'Swig' Johnson demonstrates how easy it can be to bend copper for a homemade 50-ft immersion wort chiller. Why build your own? Short of stealing your brother-in-law's*, it's probably the most economical way to secure a chiller of this length.
Tips on building your own
- For good directions, have a look at this link
- Copper tubing is available at most hardware stores
- Look for soft, bendable 3/8" copper tubing, 50' in length, like this
- Hose, clamps, and fittings are available at Siciliano's
- Including copper and additional parts, the total cost to you should be $65 to $75 (much depends on how cheap you find the copper)
- Pricing may vary due to changes in the copper market
*Editor's note: Siciliano's Market does not advocate stealing, not even from your in-laws.
