Looks great, but leaks
Much nicer looking and quieter than my homemade glycol chiller. I was able to do a quick test and saw the temperature dropping nicely. Unfortunately, I woke up to a puddle of glycol the next day. Spike has been working with me, but I’ll have to perform the fix myself. The drain and sight glass are neat, but not worth creating two failure points for leaks in my opinion. I’d encourage Spike to eliminate both in future models.
Excellent
This chiller works great! Very quiet and chills fast.
Great product! Works perfect!
Chills up quick and is quiet! Works well for my needs! Had some questions about it and customer service couldn’t have been better! Great company! Thanks spike! Cheers!
Love it!
Review after the first run.
If you read my previous review you’ll find a few additional notes. I wanted to leave some feedback about the performance as well. Held my fermentation temp for a week. Never deviated more than about a degree. Steady at 63F until I raised it to 67f for a dicetyl rest for a few day. Then it was time to cold crash. Went from 67 down to 34 in just a few hours. The glycol reservoir stayed pretty cold the entire time. I would expect the efficiency of this chiller is very high. It’s not much louder than my keezer sitting directly next to the chiller. Very very quiet overall. As always, spike hit another home run with this chiller.
Quiet
We can confidently say the Spike Glycol Chiller is the quietest on the market. This thing softly purrs like a kitten. At just 47 dB, it hums like a refrigerator. It's quieter than most noise machines to fall asleep to. It's quiet, quick and efficient.
Capacity
A 7-gallon capacity reservoir gives plenty of cooling power to all (up to four) of your fermenters. And with quick connecting glycol lines, it's easy to add all those fermenters with just the push of a tube.
Easy to Use
You need the temperature to go up? Press up. Need the temp to go down? Press down. Change from Celsius to Fahrenheit with just the push of a button. No complicated compressor delay, calibration or complex settings. We figured out all that for you and programmed it into the backend.
Cooling
Our goal was to create a powerful machine that looks great and is a great value. We really like this chart because it shows the range of actual cooling capacities—not overstated cooling capacities. You'll see a lot of our competitor's chillers come in at roughly the 2,300 BTU/hr mark. We found this to be the sweet spot for cooling four homebrewing size fermenters. Anything more is overkill and anything less is going to struggle. While we're not the highest, that was intentional. Basically, we're right where we want to be...
