    Chillers ...

    Quick poll around for advice on chillers.

    Anyone built one ?

    I'm thinking of knocking one up in the barn.

    Any cockies out there built one or got any advice alternatives ??

    Put a drain in it so you can hose it out!! My Farther has one that is a pain in the ass to clean the blood off the floor. The door opens up into the shed and you cant hose it out without flooding the shed floor.

    There is a company that supplies them as a kitset that I think is called chillerman.

    Good luck ... and post some pics as it comes together

    chillers are great..... once you have a chiller you will find you will have plenty of hunting friends all of a sudden.

    Just make sure all your new mates remember to clean the bloody thing when finished and leave beer to pay for power

    This will take 6 reds, as you can see a touch more height would be good but this is a very large animal.
