Hey Guys,
I've probably asked this before, but now I'll have it in writing so I can look it up later.
What glycol are you using? How much are you diluting it? Any issues so far?
Thanx in advance.

Re: GLYCOL FOR CHILLER
Walmart has premixed glycol for boats/RVs. I think it's $2.50/gallon. That's what I'm using and it's tested ok, but I haven't fermented a lager that way, yet. Sam said it froze for him, but I think Sam's delusional, anyway.

I am, but it did start getting some ice build up around the evaporator at lower temps when crash cooling. I went with this https://www.westmarine.com/buy/star-bri ... ecordNum=6 and mixed 2:1. Havent had any ice build up even at 25 deg, also it has better anti-corrosive properties.
