ICEMaster 100 Glycol Chilling System

The ICEmaster Glycol chiller is designed to cool fermentations in small vessels. It can be used with any vessel that has a glycol jacket or submersed cooling coil/rod. Each tank is able to be separately temperature controlled. Purchase a Glycol Pump Kit for each vessel that needs to be cooled. Each Glycol Pump Kit includes a submersible pump that is placed in the cool bath of this chiller along with a digital controller. The digital controller includes a thermal probe that should be inserted into a thermal well in your vessel or can be taped to the outside of the vessel if you don't have a thermal well. The digital controller then measures the temperature of your tank and turns the submersible pump on or off to cool to your desired set temperature. Up to four tanks can be controlled separately with one ICEmaster and four Glycol Pump Kits. 

ICEmaster 100 Glycol Chiller Compatibility

The ICEmaster can be used with any fermenter that has a built in cooling jacket or a submersed cooling coil.

• Ss Brewtech Fermenters and Brites with optional FTS Temperature Control Systems:
  Ss Brewtech FTSs kits include a pump and controller - you will not need to buy a separate Glycol Pump Kit.
• Spike Conical with Optional Cooling Package
  The optional Spike cooling system includes a pump and controller - you will not need to buy a separate Glycol Pump Kit.
• Speidel Tanks with Optional Cooling Jackets
  You will need one Glycol Pump Kit for each Speidel tank.
• Grainfather Fermenters
  Grainfather fermenters have standard cooling jackets - you will need one Glycol Pump Kit for each fermenter.
• Blichmann Fermenators with Optional Cooling Coil
  You will need one Glycol Pump Kit for each Fermenator.

ICEmaster 100 Glycol Chiller Capacity

It is always difficult to determine exactly how many tanks can be chilled at one time as it depends on what is happening in each tank, if the tank is insulated, and what the ambient temperature is. Cold crashing always requires the most energy and requires tank insulation.  We have experimented with capacities and can provide this general guide based on a 75 degree ambient and neoprene insulation. Neoprene does not provide much in the way insulation so you would obtain better results using Armaflex or a higher R rating insulation.  If only controlling fermentation temps the capacity would be higher.  Four Glycol Pump Kits (GLY355) is the maximum that will fit in the ICEmaster. We are working on smaller glycol pump kits, where the pumps have smaller footprints, so the ICEmaster right now has the capacity to use 5 pumps through the bulkhead fittings. 

Cold Crashing capacity at 75F with neoprene insulation (double for fermentation temperature control): 

• 2 - 1BBL (31 Gallon) Tank with neoprene sleeve/wrap
• 3 to 4 - 1/2BBL (15-20 Gallon) Tanks
• 4+ - 10-14 Gallon Tanks 
• 4+ - 5-7 Gallon Tanks

ICEmaster Glycol Chiller Set Up

In order to hook up the ICEmaster to your fermenter or tank's cooling system, you will need 4 lengths of tubing. All tubing connections should be secured with hose clamps.

Length 1: Submersible pump outlet to inner barb of 1st bulkhead
Length 2: Outer barb of 1st bulkhead to cooling system inlet
Length 3: Cooling system outlet to outer barb of 2nd bulkhead
Length 4: Inner barb of 2nd bulkhead to ICEmaster resevoir (should drain freely, no connection necessary)
