How to use a Chiller

If you want to add a chill to connect a chiller and use the Zymatic pump to run the wort through a chiller, you can do so. Add a misc ingredient to your recipe with the name Chill. Set the amount to the target temperature and the time to pump at that temperature.

In this screenshot, we are chilling to 70 degrees and pumping for 10 minutes after we hit our target temperature.

How to Whirlpool

If you want to add a Whirlpool hop addition, you do that by specifying the hop addition type being Aroma (Hopstand).

NOTE: The Whirlpool hops MUST BE the last bin used.

The screenshot below shows a Whirlpool for 27 minutes.
