Review on πŸ’§ Active Aqua AACH10HP Water Chiller Cooling System: User-Friendly, Efficient Cooling Solution (1/10 HP, 1,020 BTU/hour) - Black by Elena Bryant

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Now I depend on it

I use the AACH10HP to control the fermentation temperature when brewing beer. Active Aqua cools the water, which in turn cools the fermentation of the beer. I have now brewed several ales and a lager with him. I wasn't expecting any trouble keeping temperatures in the mid to high sixty degrees, but I was pleasantly surprised to see that it held 6 gallons of beer in the mid 40's in an ambient 72 degree temperature. Not once did the system struggle to keep up - which was a relief as I was concerned I didn't have enough system sizes and should have bought the 0.25hp. I hope that it will continue to work reliably many, many times in the years to come. Since I bought this as a brand new model, no one knows the lifespan. So far, so good. I don't know how I did it before I bought the cooler and Active Aqua works fine.

Pros
  • Robust construction
Cons
  • unreliable
