A plate chiller can be thought of as a compact version of a counterflow. The concept is very similar in that it is a standalone heat exchanger where both hot wort and cold water are brought together outside of the brew pot. These are said to have the best efficiency in water usage and obviously take up a very small space which may be a concern in a compact brewing system. One drawback is the tiny passages and inability to dissassemble makes cleaning difficult. Care must be taken to strain the pellet hop particles out of the wort prior to running through the chiller by using a hop stopper or similar straining device.[[User:Bobby M|Bobby M]] 23:08, 13 February 2007 (CST)
