As someone who lives in a hot climate where droughts occur regularly and where the groundwater is 80+ degrees in the summer, I’ve been doing mostly no-chill brewing (letting the hot wort passively chill in an HDPE cube overnight then pitching the next day) to reduce my brewing water usage.
I’ve been really happy with the results, and I’m finally beginning to nail hoppy styles. Anyone else have no-chill experience who’d like to compare notes?

What is this HDPE cube of which you speak? I haven’t brewed since I moved to the desert myself and now I’m very interested.
Some people also call them Jerry cans. Here’s an example on Amazon. I think they were originally made for water storage. cube
Right on! Thanks!
