In theory that might work. In practice, I have never heard of anyone doing so. The process seems to work fine anyway. The amount of copper dissolving from a chiller (or other piping) is going to be microscopic. Maybe the yeast can take some advantage of it, but the difference will not be all that big. for your first (hundred?) brews, I would not even start to worry about it. Remember, it will be beer anyway! -H -- Heikki Levanto "In Murphy We Turst" heikki (at) lsd (dot) dk
