HOW IT WORKS

This product cools a Grainfather Conical Fermenter to a minimum optimal 

temperature of 4 - 6°C (39 - 43°F)*. The cold glycol can be used to keep the beer in a 

fermenter at a desired temperature.
The glycol chiller includes a pump with 4 connections to make it possible to connect 

and control the temperature of up to four 30 L (8 US Gal) Grainfather Conical 

Fermenters in total.

PRIMING PUMP BEFORE FIRST TIME USE 

IMPORTANT 

Make sure the chiller has been standing upright for 24 hours before turning it ON. Before using the 

Glycol Chiller, you must prime the pump by carefully following the instructions below.

IMPORTANT

Make sure to leave the power to the unit off while completing steps 1 to 4. It is vital that the chiller’s 

compressor does not start until there is water/glycol in the glycol tank.

1.  Place the Glycol Chiller close to your Grainfather Conical Fermenter so that all connections can be 

made without the need to move the unit again.

2.  Open the cap on the top of the Glycol Chiller. Using the included Grainfather Glycol Funnel with 

mesh filter, pour 4 L (1.06 US Gal) of water into the tank. Close the cap and let the chiller rest for a 

minimum of 5 minutes (the longer the better).

3.  Connect a Grainfather Conical Fermenter, via an M12 power cord, to your chiller’s 4th port (at 

the back of the chiller under number 4). Your fermenter will also need to be fitted with a Conical 

Fermenter Digital Controller.

4.  Connect the included silicon hose to the glycol mixture outlet connection (silver in colour with blue 

cap) under number 4. Open the cap and insert the free end of the hose into the opening of the glycol 

tank (shown in the image).

5.  Turn your chiller on by pressing the power button. The power cord will need to be plugged into the 

back of the chiller to provide power.
