I stir my wort to create a whirlpool while chilling with an immersion chiller. I usually get to around 70 degrees in 10-12 minutes then let it sit for another 2-3 minutes before autosiphoning from the kettle to carboy. I cut the IC when I've got about half of the wort in the carboy. It's a bit...

+ 5 gallons Redwood Rauch = 15,911.5
