  • Glycol chillers can be intimidating, but once you understand how they work, they're as easy as using a refrigerator. Glycol chillers are the gold standard for fermentation temperature control, and in this video, we'll explain how they work and why you should consider buying one to keep your fermentation controlled.

    The Max 2 has been working great for me keeping 11+ gallons of fermenting beer chilled in my garage. BTW, sounds like Vito's lav mic wasn't turned on.

    Loving my Icemaster Max 2 so far. Really does make the process more convenient.

    My Icemaster Max 4 is a complete game changer. Spot on temperature control with precision and FAST cold crashing.

    Are you able to use a glycol chiller to bring a high temp down? For example 220 degrees Fahrenheit to 38 degrees Fahrenheit? Wouldn’t necessarily need to be really fast but I’m just wondering if it would break the chiller. Also, if using a glycol chiller could you turn a brite tank into a tank where you can serve a cold beverage from? Like a bar or something?
    I’m a novice so I appreciate your help.

    I asked a similar question in another thread, but I just want clarity. Can this unit also heat? If I make mead in the winter in my garage I want to make sure I can maintain a warm temp for fermenting.

    • @MoreBeer_
      @MoreBeer_  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey Stephen, sorry for the confusion. These systems are really meant for cooling. In your case, you may be more interested in using something a heating pad connected to a temperature controller in order to maintain that warm temperature that you're looking for!

  • @geronimoache488

    Hello!! Thanks for the vide, it was very well explained! I would like to know, what is the maximum volume of fermenter that can be cooled and controled with the ICEMASTER Max 4. I have three 40 gal fermenters, do you think it will suffice? Thanks!

  • @andrewlambert9946
    @andrewlambert9946 ปีที่แล้ว

    In order to use Keglands RAPT system (maybe their controllers) would you reccomend just using the max 100
    OR - is there a way to integrate the rapt control into the icemaster 2

  • @dirkfranzen6687
    @dirkfranzen6687 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I've been using the Max 4 and it works great! The controllers have the ability to also turn on/off a heating unit, but they didn't include an output jack for that. That would be a nice feature for things like saisons or brewing with kviek, and they could offer a heating unit/jacket as an accessory.

    Did I just watched Glycol porn? Wishing I could satisfy my beer temperature that way!

    I am using the G40 with grainfather fermenters. When I put the temp probe in it give me an error. Seems like it the fermenters temp probe is not compatible with with the chiller. Any idea how to fix this?

  • @luisllerena3944

    Quisiera saber si este chiller puede llegar a enfriar un fermentador de 250 Litros?

  • @4rdzlla

    Ok its been a summer in CA has these beem tested cold crashing 2 fermenters ar the same time. Say in a garage. My garage can get what feels like 95 inside

    After fermentation how do you disassemble and remove tubes?

  • @G60Guy
    @G60Guy ปีที่แล้ว

    So I ferment in a modified dorm fridge that cools AND heats. What about conditions where you need heat for fermentation? Is there a chiller/heater? Needed for cold climates or kivek yeasts.....

    • @snackhack9021
      @snackhack9021 ปีที่แล้ว

      Use a temp controller and reptile heater or heat wrap … some guys use a ceramic Light

  • @Stevejohnson-od3mk

    I currently use a chest freezer w/ a temperature controller and can handle 2 batches at a time. I would love a glycol chiller but I have to save some major pennies before I could pop for one. Something to look forward to.

  • @warren_roque_brewer
    @warren_roque_brewer ปีที่แล้ว

    Great video, I want the icemaster max 2 including the brewbuilt x2 jacket in order to replace my freezer, I will have it soon and I will take it to Lima, Peru. Just like my brewzilla gen4.
    I will waiting the next videos.
    Cheers guys.
    greatting from Lima Perú.

    Pros: everything .cons: maybe should have been painted ice blue. Maybe, but I wouldn't complain.

  • @jasonnykamp6173
    @jasonnykamp6173 ปีที่แล้ว

    Maybe some day. For now, I'm fermenting at room temp. To be fair, I am only doing 1 gal batches. I haven't upgraded to 5 gal yet.

  • @blackwoodbrews
    @blackwoodbrews ปีที่แล้ว

    That would be a nice addition, summer months get around 102-108 here in the cali desert. But I think the wife would kill me if I brought that home. 😂

  • @kevinc9625
    @kevinc9625 ปีที่แล้ว

    What should the reservoir controller that is in back of the unit be set to? Should it be at 28F (-2c)? I've read that it should be about 15f lower than your coldest fermentation temp would be, so that the compressor does not power on/off more than needed.

  • @terrellhillard3018
    @terrellhillard3018 ปีที่แล้ว

    I want one of those puppies. I'm done with the chest freezer with its +/-2 degree temp fluctuation.

  • @curtpick628
    @curtpick628 ปีที่แล้ว

    I usually have 2 to 3 fermentations going. This would be great for lagering and crashing.

  • @jerryseaton6512
    @jerryseaton6512 ปีที่แล้ว

    I am using a refrigerator with heat wrap on my fermenter. Hope to some day upgrade to a glycol chiller or maybe get lucky and win the one you all are giving away.

    Im currently using a water bath, a submersible pump, a cooling coil, and frozen water bottles/lunchbox ice packs, it helps me get the temps to where i need but a glycol chiller would get me to the next level, help me expand my fermentation capabilities!
