❄️ Chill Smarter, Brew Faster: The Copper Coil Revolution
The Quick Chill Double Copper Immersion Coil features a twin coil design with 50 feet of 1/2 inch copper tubing, engineered to cool 10 to 20-gallon batches of wort faster by maximizing cooling contact inside the liquid. Made in the USA from premium copper, it delivers professional-grade performance for homebrewers seeking efficiency and quality.

Wow all I can say is wow.
It is just a little too tall for a 5 gallon batch, that's my setup. High quality construction. I have an 8 gallon brew kettle and it fits inside with plenty of room to spare. It chilled it in 4:40 seconds from boil to under 80 degrees. I used a brew spoon to stir in between the middle coil and it helped speed it up. My yeast wasn't done pitching yet is how fast this thing works. I took this thing to the hardware store, and had to spend another 20 bucks for the garden hose setup. I had a garden hose at home. I just attached the fittings right to the chiller no clamps needed. I can honestly say, nothing has revolutionized my brew day as much as this piece of hardware right here. I would highly recommend this thing. This thing is of a sturdy construction and a great design that that creates much more surface area.

Awesome, Awesome, Awesome-Very Fast Cooling!
Awesome, Awesome, Awesome. I can cool 6 gallons of wort from boil to 68 F. in under 15 minutes, and 45 gallons from 155 F. to 80 F. in under 40 minutes (well water at 55 F.). The 3/8 inch, 20 foot coil from my local brew shop is $79.00, and takes A WHOLE lot longer to cool. This costs almost the same as buying the copper from a Dept. store and doing it yourself without the time investment.

works fine.The only reason for four stars instead of five, is that the one I received had a crushed/flattened end on one of the ends. Not a problem for me, I used a cutter and cut it off. However, most people do not have copper tubing cutters on hand and would have had to find some way to obtain or use a cutter.To be clear, with a cutter it took all of maybe a minute - was easy and nothing to it. If no cutter, you would have to find or buy one. I guess it could be done with a hacksaw, but the ends probably wouldn't be good enough for a compression fitting.

Simply Excellent
I have purchased many items on Amazon, but I can say up until now, this is hands down the best product i have purchased. It is high grade copper (thick and heavy) and it cooled my wort extremely fast. I live in California and our tap water is not all that cold but it still cooled the wort to 70 degrees in a little over ten minutes. Very impressed and it came fast too.

Wondered why this item weighed less and was less expensive than the competition.That's because it's not true 1/2 " pipe. It's really 3/8" pipe. Oh well there's one born every minute.

tube diameter is slightly miss represented in the info
Works fine for what it is. Arrived and has no fitting for attaching tube to it. Also it is advertied as a 1/2 " diameter coil it is not 1/2" inside diameter as I was expecting but 1/2 outer and 3/8" inside diameter.

I was REALLY hesitant on getting this because of how much water I thought I'd be wasting compared to my old thinner chiller coil that I used for 5 gallon batches. This, shockingly cools my new 20 gallon batches in the same time that my 5 gallon batches were cooled. In the summer months of Chicago, I go from boiling to 80F in about 20 minutes. About half way through I lower the water pressure/speed and move the chiller coil in my wort and I can sometimes shave 5 minutes off of that even. I spent a good deal of time doing research on this vs counter flow chiller coils and chiller plates. I went with this because I feared infection from cleaning issues. Plus if you clean things correctly every time, you're probably spending an extra 30 minutes each time you brew doing that. Proper cleanup of this takes 5 minutes or less and sterilizes in the next batch/boil.I did end up coupling this with a 1/3hp motor that I throw in the nearby lake with a 100ft hose. No water waste there. If you don't have a nearby lake and you're concerned consider a rain catcher of which you could also put a cheap $50 pump in. The one I use is https://www.amazon.com/Superior-Pump-91330-Thermoplastic-Submersible/dp/B000X07GQS

Good copper coil
Good size for cooling wort quickly. I actually team this chiller up with a second smaller one I had on hand that I place in a cooler filled with ice water. Chills my hot wort more quickly. I do wish the supplier would terminate the copper coil ends with a fitting. I had to take the trouble to go get the parts to do that.
