Buy the bulk roll yourself save a good chunk of $$. Up here a bulk roll of 1/2" runs around $1.30/foot. Already in a coil. Rewrap it around a full(for weight) bleach jug. I bet it fits perfect in 5 gallon pail. Top of with ice(free frozen water)
Great ideas guys, cheap and cool!
I am also looking for a cheap way out for painting parts. Would something like this be an option? $65.00 on Amazon. Already made "wort chiller". 1/2 X 25' (9" wide) 5 gallon pal? View attachment 1715403798
