Everyone knows the commonly accepted practice is to add your immersion chiller during the last 15min of the boil in order to sanitize it....but why? From all of the research I have gathered, it only takes about 30seconds of immersion in a liquid of 170 degrees or more to sanitize something. I have been doing the boiling method for years without questioning the practice, but I have a 50ft chiller and it totally kills the boil for a minute or two....which is really annoying.
why not just add it at flameout?
