Hey all. The two things I have considered a drag in home brewing are - 1) bottling, and 2) cooling down the wort. With kegging, the first item has been solved. The other, not so much.
I currently use an immersion chiller and it seems to be the one part of the brew day where something goes awry and I just find it to be a lousy experience overall.
So I’m thinking about trying no-chill. If I were to buy a viable container, I’m still uneasy about pouring hot liquid into any type of plastic container. I wanted to see if anyone has any suggestions on the use of plastic containers for no-chill and where you buy them from and what specific characteristics they have to have. My other thought was to get an extra corny keg, transfer it there, and then transfer to a bucket; In that case, I’m not keen on transferring the beer again. Thanks.
