I hook my wort chiller up on my basement sink and then I put the run-off tube straight into my washing machine. That way nothing goes to waste. This is only really possible if you have a sink right next to your chiller though. Not sure if you brew Extract or All-grain, but the water consumption is so much greater on a household level doing all-grain. Obviously the companies that produce extract must waste a ton of water in their process and that's part of the reason it's more expensive to buy extract compared to grains. keep it up. I like your style!

You da man.

Thanks for the clarification Derek, I couldn't remember how long...10 minutes is WAY more impressive.

Man, I cannot wait to try that Stout Chocula, if I get a chance. Sounds awesome! And just clarify for the readers, it only took us 10 minutes to cool down the wort. I'm not sure if that was a typo or maybe I just misread what you were trying to say. I am going to get another immersion chiller as well, but I've been watching some youtube videos on making your own, so I may try that. Cheers, El Bearded One. DA

I like the idea of the second immersion chiller. Another option is to pick up a small aquarium pump from a hardware store, and then fill a bucket w/ ice water, and have the aquarium pump recirc the ice water. You end up using less then a few gallons of water each time.
