Penguin glycol chiller and accessories pack set up and demonstration
Setting up the penguin glycol chiller for my home brew set up. Including running and decibel levels at the unit and 3-5 feet away. Everything I needed was included straight from penguin in either he chiller package or their great accessory package you can buy separately.
Check them out at www.penguinchillers.com or on Facebook if you have any questions!!

So far so good, switched over to the XL pump and it dropped all 4 fermenters 3-4* across the board.
Are you using solenoid valves to individually control temps to your different fermenters? How do you have those set up?

I have a single pump that feeds a first in last out manifold with a solenoid valve for each fermenter. It's all controlled through my panel from Ebrew supply.
Does the penguin chill separate vessels at separate temps?

Yes, it has ports in the lid to cool up to 4 vessels. You will need an inkbird or something like an inkbird and a pump for each vessel. You would plug the pump into the "cool" on the inkbird.
Do you thinks its possible to fit 4 of the pumps into the Chiller? I have the 1/2 hp also and It doesn't seem possible.

How many bbls total are you cooling? And are you cold crashing or just maintaining?

I've held 3bbls total at crashing temps for months straight when I was too busy to drink or can, never had any issues. Crash one at a time and it's not a problem. I only have one pump feeding all the fermenters so it's a little different than your standard setup and I still have no issues crashing and maintaining 35* across all unitanks.
How did you control your pumps from your ebrew supply panel?

My brew pumps are controlled by the panel. The glycol pump runs 24/7. There is a recycle on my hard piping so it's never dead headed.
