CONNECTING MORE THAN ONE FERMENTER  

The glycol chiller can allow up to four 30 L (8 US Gal) Grainfather Conical Fermenters to be connected at

one time. When connecting more than one fermenter, repeat the connection steps (see page 8) for each

additional fermenter that needs to be connected by matching the remaining connections labelled from

2-4. Then complete the following:
1.  Top up the glycol tank as per the Topping Up the Glycol Tank sub-section until it is FULL. For each 

additional fermenter (which does not already have glycol in its cooling sleeve) connected, you will 

need approximately 600 ml (20 US fl oz) of additional glycol mixture. 

2.  Check that each fermenter is plugged into the correct connections. Take care to make sure that 

each fermenter is plugged into the correct numbers on the Glycol Chiller. It is a good idea to label the 

fermenter and hoses to the matching number on the chiller to avoid any confusion.

NOTE: To prevent the pump from running dry, if the glycol level is too low, the pump will automatically 

switch off, the chiller will make a “beeping” noise and the power button on the chiller will flash. When this 

happens, refill the glycol tank until it is FULL (see page 6); this will restart the pump.
